Fireblossom

Fireblossom is a type of Herb which appears as a small, magma-colored flower. It grows on Ash Blocks in the Underworld and can be cut with virtually any weapon or tool. You can also plant it in Clay Pots or on Ash Blocks using Fireblossom Seeds.

A Fireblossom will bloom when it is fully submerged in Lava (the plant is not damaged by the lava). A blooming Fireblossom will take on an appearance like the one in the adjacent picture. A blooming Fireblossom will also shoot a stream of sparks into the air. Using Lava Buckets and Clay Pots in an enclosed area is one option to accomplish this; the clay pots are also immune to damage from lava. When in bloom, you can receive its seeds along with the plant itself when you harvest it.

In the PC version (as of 1.3) Fireblosoms will not bloom while submerged in lava. They bloom during the sunset (at 3:45 pm to 7:30 pm).
