how to make flower show up normally

[minecraftplayer142]

i am trying to make a flower that has transparency in it but all the parts that should be transparent in the texture are showing as black. when i searched it up it said that i have to set isopaqueblock to false in the flower's class but i am not sure how to do so. here is my class for the flower

 

package com.me.mymod.blocks;

import net.minecraft.block.*;
import net.minecraft.client.renderer.RenderType;
import net.minecraft.client.renderer.RenderTypeBuffers;
import net.minecraft.client.renderer.RenderTypeLookup;
import net.minecraft.util.math.AxisAlignedBB;
import net.minecraft.util.math.BlockPos;
import net.minecraft.util.math.shapes.VoxelShape;
import net.minecraft.world.IBlockReader;
import net.minecraftforge.common.extensions.IForgeBlockState;

public class FlowerBase extends BushBlock {

    public FlowerBase(Properties properties) {
        super(properties);
    }

    public boolean isOpaqueCube() {
        return false;
    }

    // ^ that's where i'm having trouble, this is not doing anything and i'm not sure how to make it do something

    @Override
    public OffsetType getOffsetType()
    {
        return AbstractBlock.OffsetType.XZ;
    }


}

and here is how it's showing up

first you have to add to your block properties notSolid (that you can't look into the ground)

and second you have to do something like this (in your mod class):

	private void doClientStuff(FMLClientSetupEvent event) {
	
		RenderTypeLookup.setRenderLayer(yourBlock, RenderType.getCutout());
		
	}
