Common Vegetation

Common Vegetation, in the definition used here, are plants that are abundantly present, 'common', in many biomes and/or larger regions of Middle-Earth.

The main motive for this page is to avoid long lists of plants in the biome infoboxes on the biome pages. The main purpose is to provide info on the occurence of these plants in biomes of Middle-Earth and to provide links to more detailed information on any common plant. The 'vegetation' section of the biome infoboxes will in many cases contain one or more link(s) to the groups of common vegetation mentioned below.

The 'common vegetation' is divided in a number of logical groups that correspond to the occurence of these groups in larger regions of Middle-Earth. This division may change as more plants are added with new mod updates. For now, we distinguish between the following groups of common vegetation:

Global: Berry Bush,, Flax, Reed, , Thistle, , , , LOTR Grasses, Clover and.

Temperate:, , , , , , , , and.

Tropical:, Flame of Harad, Harad Daisy, Hibiscus, Sand Gem and Southbell.

Some plants grow in limited number of biomes. Their occurence is mentioned specifically in every relevant biome infobox.

A number of biomes/regions, particularly evil and/or very inhospitable lands, has no common vegetation at all, except. These are: HOLD.

Global
The common vegetation in this category is spread across entire Middle-Earth. Typically these are either of hardly any use, or a unique source for a resource.

Berry Bush
Berry Bushes are a valuable source of quick bites and road snacks. Varieties of Berry Bushes grow wherever there is a grassy top soil.

are the only source for the casing of and the filling of delicious. For the latter delicacy, the presence of egg-laying common animals would be handy.

Flax
Flax is a valuable resource and found in a great many grassy and forested biomes. For many peoples, it is the only available source of String and for most of the people in Far Harad it's the only resource for.

Reed
Reed can be found in many biomes along river banks and lakes and in all swampy biomes and Biome Variants in any water bodies. It is the only source providing Thatch.

can be found in all swampy biomes and Biome Variants in fens, slow flowing brooks, rivers and lakes. With Riverweed, it is the only material that enables 'walking on water'.

LOTR Grasses
These grasses are all LOTR types of grass and can be found wherever there is a top soil that can support them. This even holds for the most barren landscapes that basically only feed pale and dry looking short grasses. They are the main sources of nourishment for herbivorous Common Animals of Middle-Earth. Notable types are: Wheatgrass, Flowery Grass & Short Grass.

Clover
Clovers are also found anywhere there is a fertile top soil. They are the favorite snack of darned Rabbit]s, Leprechauns and [[Hobbit horticulturists.

These are a group of Vanilla Minecraft plants that fill up any empty area where the notion of 'fertility fo the land' is to be nourished by providing '3D' structures that wave in the winds and hide small animals from the view of any possible omnivore or carnivore.

Temperate
The plants in this group are typically found in the biomes in between the Forodwaith to the north and Near Harad to the south, including Umbar.
