The hitbox seems to be right (at the center of the block) but the flowers themselves are slightly off center. Not all kinds of flowers are involved (here with oxeye)
I understand that the flowers are supposed to be placed of center, but in this case so should be the hitbox.

please reopen, this bug report is not about the flowers being placed off center!

Please reopen, this is not resolved.

This bug is more than just an annoyance of the hitbox being slightly offset, I first became aware of it because some flowers couldn't be broken until you targeted off the flower.
Notice in the video that the hitboxes for all flowers (that I could find in survival) are offset from the flowers themselves. The hitbox can be off either way on the X or Z axis and can be so far off that it's hard to target flowers (see poppy in the video.)

This implies that flowers are placed randomly offset from the center of the block they are on and the hitbox is not moveable. if this is the case, the hitbox should be expanded to compensate for variable placement.
