You can add a peony to your inventory in Survival mode by finding a peony flower and gathering it. So, let’s get started!
1. Find a Peony Flower
First, you need to find a peony flower in the game.
2. Break the Peony Flower
The game control to break the peony flower depends on the version of Minecraft:

The peony flower will break and a smaller peony will float on the ground.

Make sure you pick up the peony before it disappears.
Once you pick up the peony, it will appear in your hotbar.
Peonies are useful items and should be kept in your inventory to be used later.
