'''Lapis Lazuli Candypop Buds''' ({{j|ルリポンガシグサ|Ruri Pongashi Gusa|Lapis Lazuli Puffed Grain Weed}}) are blue [[Candypop Bud]]s in {{p2}}. They behave the same as all other Candypop Buds, except when non-Blue [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] are thrown in, they will change into [[Blue Pikmin]]. If Blue Pikmin are thrown in, they will be reverted to the leaf [[maturity]]. These plants are usually found in close proximity to [[water]], and finding them can generally be taken as an indication that Blue Pikmin will be needed.

They technically do appear in {{p3}} and {{p4}}, but all Candypop Buds are merged into one in those games, meaning they are just different variants of the same plant rather than separate species of the [[Candypop]] family.

==Locations==
* [[Frontier Cavern]]: One on sublevel 5 ([[Bulbmin]] available).
* [[Snagret Hole]]: Three on sublevel 6.
* [[Hole of Heroes]]: Two on sublevel 6.
