Figwort

Scrophularia xenomium Note: this is not the scientific name given by humans.

The Figwort is a cluster of tall, flower-bearing plants. It is non-native to the Pikmin world, hence 'xeno-' in its Latin name. When Olimar comes in contact with the planet for the first time, the Figworts' flowers are blue, and often release extremely small flying insects (considering Olimar's size); in Pikmin 2, they are red, and wilted forms of this plant can be seen. Many wilted ones can be found on the first sublevel of the Frontier Cavern, hiding many Doodlebugs. As scenery, it has almost no gameplay value, but it does occasionally uncover Doodlebugs if a Captain steps through a patch.
