Editing Chrysanthemum family

{{game icons|p2=y}}
The '''chrysanthemum family''' contains three species, two classed as enemies, and one as a [[plant]], much in the same way as the [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]]. This family is based on the real-life {{w|Chrysanthemum|chrysanthemum genus}}. Members belong to the ''luminosus'' and ''taraxacum'' genus.

==Members==
===Creeping Chrysanthemum===

{{main|Creeping Chrysanthemum}}
The Creeping Chrysanthemum is a carnivorous member of the Chrysanthemum family. In ''Pikmin 2'' it is a large plant-like creature with a red mouth, two eyes on its shoulders disguised as flowers, and two arm-like tentacles that it uses to move around; in ''Pikmin 4'' it has a more froglike body and legs as well as a long tongue that it uses to catch prey. 

This creature disguises itself as a Margaret, rising up out of the ground and attacking prey that ventures near; as such, they are often found near real Margarets. It can be distinguished from a Margaret because its eyes are visible when camouflaged.

===Margaret===

{{main|Margaret}}
Margarets are yellow, dandelion-like plants. They tend to grow in bright [[areas|places]], such as the [[Awakening Wood]]. Creeping Chrysanthemums are often found where there are many of these plants.

=== Startle Spore ===

{{main|Startle Spore}}
The Startle Spore disguises itself as a cluster of mushrooms rather than as a plant, and leaves behind pools of poisonous liquid when it attacks.

==Naming==
{{stub|section=y}}
Chrysanthemums are a real-world family of flowers, and greatly resemble the in-game family's members.

Interestingly, the Creeping Crysanthemum has the genus ''Taraxacum'', even though it is not part of the [[dandelion family]]. In real life, this is impossible, as different species cannot be in the same genus and different families.
