      Frozen oceans have a temperature of 0.0 in the vanilla worldgen files, which makes this biome have a foliage color that matches other cold biomes. However, their deep variant deep_frozen_ocean have a different temperature value, which is 0.5, the same value as all other ocean biomes.

      This creates an inconsistency as how both biomes foliage color doesn't match each other even though their water color does and both are cold biomes. This causes jarring transitions between both biomes when blocks of grass or other foliage is involved.

      How to reproduce

      1. Locate a frozen ocean.
      2. Place a block of grass inside this biome.
      3. Locate a deep frozen ocean.
      4. Repeat step 2.
      5. Compare the foliage colors.

      Expected result
      Deep frozen ocean temperature/foliage color would match frozen oceans.

      Observed result
      Deep frozen oceans use the generic ocean foliage color.
