Yeah it can be a pain but I like that, it gives a little bit of a mystery. I typically just use things that are either found in the wild by the hives like mushrooms for marshy or rock for rocky bees and see if it works. If not I try everything else that has to do with rock. If you didn't know before I'll tell you, Bees take a long time to breed things like finding their flowers just make it longer lmao.
Types of flowers that bees need?

Humorously, you can also use the bees to replicate other things - lilypads, or vines, say. Heavens knows I need those lilypads to set up my reed farm properly.
And there is one notable exception to the flowers thing: the bees don't seem to recognize indigo flowers from RP2, which is a shame. You can set up config/forestry/apiculture.conf to allow that, though.

Shade is optional. Mushrooms planted on mycelium will tolerate maximum brightness. Mycelium can be gotten from the moistener.
Be careful, mycelium have the tendency to take over the dirt and grass blocks that are nearby.
*chuckles* That's what I call to deliver. Have a like from me. To-Do for your next post: Read about the [Spoiler] Tags.
Do tell. How? I have a legion of purple flowers in my area but be damned if I can find a daffodil or rose. I can't get the ID:meta syntax correct, I dun get it D:
On the topic of mushrooms, I believe you can place them under the ground beneath the apiaries, and it should still pick it up. Course, that was a couple of versions back.
This is all you need for indigo flowers: beekeeping.flowers.custom=214
Dunno if you can change the ratio by adding more entries, but it'd be worth a shot if you're looking to increase yellow and red flower production.
Yep, bees don't need line of sight to their flowers (whether flowers are flowers or cacti, mushrooms, dragon eggs, etc.) They'll even spread flowers through solid ground to dirt underneath if there's air space above it. I have my cactus buried because I died and lost items to it one time too many when I was around unstable bees...
Did this thread really have to be resurrected? There is something for this in the Bee Wiki.
Don't have a link.

What is that one? I mean what do you use to get that screen? I only have the Habitat Locator and the Beealyzer.
