The '''meadow''' is an elevated grassy [[Minecraft:mountain]] slope [[Minecraft:biome]] filled with patches of [[Minecraft:flower]]s, turquoise-green [[Minecraft:grass]] and [[Minecraft:tall grass]], where [[Minecraft:sheep]], [[Minecraft:donkey]]s and [[Minecraft:rabbit]]s spawn.

== Generation ==
Meadows generate on the slope of [[Minecraft:mountains]], standalone on plateaus, or as valleys inside mountain rings, in the medium and cold temperature zones. This allows for a wide variety in shapes and terrain; they can often generate as "microbiomes" of only a few blocks wide; as plateaus stretching hundreds of blocks; or a thin slope surrounding massive mountains. Meadow biomes can also form mountain rings on their own.
 
On the valley side of meadows, they border [[Minecraft:flower forest]]s, [[Minecraft:plains]], [[Minecraft:forest]]s, [[Minecraft:birch forest]]s, and [[Minecraft:taiga]]s while they border [[Minecraft:jagged peaks]], [[Minecraft:snowy slopes]], and [[Minecraft:grove]]s on the mountain side. They can border [[Minecraft:cherry grove]]s, [[Minecraft:savanna plateau]]s, or any snowy biome when the temperature changes, and [[Minecraft:forest]]s or [[Minecraft:pale garden]]s when humidity increases.
 
Mountains with meadows are often separated from [[Minecraft:cherry grove]] and [[Minecraft:frozen peaks]] mountains or [[Minecraft:sunflower plains]] by [[Minecraft:river]]s or dry valleys.


== Description ==
== Description ==
The meadow is the most common mountain biome, covering 1.19% of the Overworld's surface area.
The meadow is a high altitude counterpart to the [[Minecraft:plains]] biome. It is covered by most [[Minecraft:flower]]s controlled by a gradient, meaning that it can continue for hundreds of blocks with the same type of flower. In addition to this, the ground is covered by lots of [[Minecraft:short grass]] and [[Minecraft:wildflowers]], along with some [[Minecraft:tall grass]].


The meadow is a high altitude counterpart to the [[Minecraft:plains]] biome. All small [[Minecraft:flower]]s generate except [[Minecraft:blue orchid]]s, [[Minecraft:tulip]]s, [[Minecraft:lilies of the valley]], [[Minecraft:torchflower]]s, [[Minecraft:Eyeblossom|eyeblossoms]], or [[Minecraft:wither rose]]s. Rarely, a lone oak or [[Minecraft:birch tree]] of any size can generate and always has a [[Minecraft:bee nest]]. Both [[Minecraft:pillager outposts]] and [[Minecraft:plains village]]s can generate in this biome, making this the only mountain biome where villages can generate. {{IN|java}}, unlike most overworld biomes, [[Minecraft:sugar cane]]s and [[Minecraft:pumpkin]] patches cannot generate here.

Just like other mountain biomes, [[Minecraft:emerald ore]]s can be found in meadows, especially at higher altitudes, and both [[Minecraft:Coal ore|coal]] and [[Minecraft:iron ore]]s are commonly found here. [[Minecraft:Infested block]] [[Minecraft:Ore (feature)|blobs]] also naturally generate in meadows.

This biome usually generates in the lower sides of some mountains but can also generate standalone in plateaus, mainly next to [[Minecraft:plain]]s and separated from [[Minecraft:cherry grove]]s, regular [[Minecraft:forest]]s, regular [[Minecraft:birch forest]], or regular [[Minecraft:taiga]]s by [[Minecraft:river]]s.
{{IN|be}}, meadows are cold and allow [[Minecraft:snowfall]] above Y=200±8, however, this never occurs on natural terrain.

Template:Infobox biome The meadow is an elevated grassy Minecraft:mountain slope and plateau Minecraft:biome filled with patches of Minecraft:flowers, turquoise-green Minecraft:grass and Minecraft:tall grass, where Minecraft:sheep, Minecraft:donkeys and Minecraft:rabbits spawn.

Generation

Meadows generate on the slope of Minecraft:mountains, standalone on plateaus, or as valleys inside mountain rings, in the medium and cold temperature zones. This allows for a wide variety in shapes and terrain; they can often generate as "microbiomes" of only a few blocks wide; as plateaus stretching hundreds of blocks; or a thin slope surrounding massive mountains. Meadow biomes can also form mountain rings on their own.

On the valley side of meadows, they border Minecraft:flower forests, Minecraft:plains, Minecraft:forests, Minecraft:birch forests, and Minecraft:taigas while they border Minecraft:jagged peaks, Minecraft:snowy slopes, and Minecraft:groves on the mountain side. They can border Minecraft:cherry groves, Minecraft:savanna plateaus, or any snowy biome when the temperature changes, and Minecraft:forests or Minecraft:pale gardens when humidity increases.

Mountains with meadows are often separated from Minecraft:cherry grove and Minecraft:frozen peaks mountains or Minecraft:sunflower plains by Minecraft:rivers or dry valleys.

Description

The meadow is a high altitude counterpart to the Minecraft:plains biome. It is covered by most Minecraft:flowers controlled by a gradient, meaning that it can continue for hundreds of blocks with the same type of flower. In addition to this, the ground is covered by lots of Minecraft:short grass and Minecraft:wildflowers, along with some Minecraft:tall grass.

Rarely, a lone Minecraft:oak or Minecraft:birch tree of any size can generate and always has a Minecraft:bee nest. Both Minecraft:pillager outposts and Minecraft:plains villages can generate in this biome, making this the only mountain biome where villages can generate. Template:IN, unlike most overworld biomes, Minecraft:sugar canes and Minecraft:pumpkin patches cannot generate here. Minecraft:Abandoned camps sometimes generate in meadows.Template:Upcoming

Just like other mountain biomes, Minecraft:emerald ores can be found in meadows, especially at higher altitudes, and both coal and Minecraft:iron ores are commonly found here. Minecraft:Infested block blobs also naturally generate in meadows.

Template:IN, meadows are cold and allow Minecraft:snowfall above Y=200±8, however, this never occurs on natural terrain.

The only passive mobs that can spawn here are Minecraft:rabbits, Minecraft:sheep, and occasionally Minecraft:donkeys.
