Wither Skeletons not spawning on Wither Roses

Wither Skeletons not spawning on Wither Roses

What I expected to happen was...:
Wither Skeletons being able to spawn on Wither Roses

What actually happened was...:
No mobs spawning on wither roses

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Find a fortress with favourable spawning for Wither Skeletons
2. Prepare an enclosed area (around 34blocks square and 3 high) with Wither Roses and light up surrounding areas
3. Stand at spawnable distance.

Do nether fortress mobs spawn without the wither roses?

Hi. We also just tried this, after a horrible battle with the wither. We went to our wither skeleton corridor, where we are 1 block lower than then and use slabs to block other mobs from seeing us - and placed down wither roses all over. The corridor had previously allowed all mobs to spawn. Especially the really annoying magma cubes and Blazes. Once the roses were down, nothing spawned in there.

I removed the roses and all mobs spawned again. 

Another weirdness was that wither skeletons would Not walk over wither roses. There were 3 roses, on the edge of the killing platform, with a piglin on the other side of the platform to encourage the wither skeletons to walk into range of our swords. They just stopped and would not walk over the roses, even when we raised the ceiling by one block. When the wither roses were removed, the wither skeletons went straight across the platform to try and get the piglin. 

Tbh, the whole thing worked better without the roses, and that's not how it should be

 

 

If anyone has a more fancy wither skeleton farm, could they try and see if they are still getting wither skeletons spawning in there, on their wither roses? 

bump, doesent work in 1.21.4 also.
