Editing White Flower Garden

The '''White Flower Garden''' ({{j|白い花園|Shiroi Hanazono|White Flower Garden}}) is one of the first two caves in the [[Awakening Wood]]. It is of roughly the same difficulty as the [[Hole of Beasts]], and has five sublevels. This cave also has the next new type of Pikmin players will discover, [[White Pikmin]], which the cave was named for. The boss of this cave is the [[Burrowing Snagret]]. In this cave for the US [[Region|version]], there are {{Pokos|580}} worth of treasures. In the European version, there are {{pokos|670}} worth of treasures.

This cave can be reached the same way that the [[Hole of Beasts]] was reached. However, before reaching the [[Creeping Chrysanthemum]], turning right will reveal a [[paper bag]] that requires the equivalent of 200 Pikmin to crush. Proceeding past it and the nearby [[Cloaking Burrow-Nit]] will lead to the cave. Defeating the Cloaking Burrow-Nit first is recommended, as the cave discovery cutscene can allow the Burrow-Nit a free shot at your squad if left unchecked.

Like the caves before it, your squad is likely limited. Bringing as many [[Purple Pikmin]] as possible (usually around 25), and filling the rest of the squad with [[Red Pikmin]], is the best option.

*'''Plants and fungi''':

 

The first sublevel is simplistic, and only holds one treasure. The cave theme is metallic, with a sandy floor for the most part. You will encounter some [[Sheargrub]]s when you approach the opening at the far end of the first plateau. You will encounter more on the second plateau. The [[Alien Billboard]] (or Nutrient Silo) will be in one of the three branching corridors, and the exit hole in another corridor.

The second sublevel features a donut-shaped plateau that has two triangular corridors branching inward and three corridors branching outwards. The [[Petrified Heart]] and [[Drought Ender]] will either be in one of the central corridors, or in one of the outer corridors. The exit hole is located in one of the outer corridors. You should scout the area with an army of [[Red Pikmin]], as there are two [[Fiery Blowhog]]s patrolling the area.

*'''Others''':

This sublevel has no enemies, but has something even better to know about it: this sublevel is famous for where you first find the [[White Pikmin]]. Move down through the long pathway, and you will come across three [[Ivory Candypop Buds]]. As a side note, they will not appear if your total White Pikmin count is 20 or more.

[[Throw]] 5 [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] into the Ivory Candypop Buds, and each will be transformed into a White Pikmin, which are the fastest Pikmin type, are immune to poison, and have the ability to excavate treasures buried ''completely'' underground. After obtaining the White Pikmin, go to one of two corners on a wall with a branching narrow corridor. Each one has a [[Honeywisp]], which will drop [[nectar]] after being defeated, which you should direct your White Pikmin to.

Afterwards, [[Group move|direct]] the White Pikmin towards the narrow corridor. The White Pikmin will almost instantly start [[digging]] up the buried [[Superstick Textile]]. After you have obtained this, enter the narrow corridor; it will lead to the next sublevel's hole.

#Use the White Pikmin to obtain both of the treasures, while ignoring the gas pipes.

 

If one of the treasures is up on a swirled plateau, throw the Pikmin up onto the lower section of the plateau. Then have the controlled [[leader]] head into the alcove under the plateau and whistle to the Pikmin, guiding them to the treasure via {{button|gc|c|wii|padd}}.

The [[Toxic Toadstool]] will be partially buried.

{{see also|Burrowing Snagret#Strategy|t1=Burrowing Snagret strategy}}

Upon entering the cave, have one leader go ahead and break the [[Nectar Egg|eggs]] on the side of the arena, and have the other leader collect a squad of [[Purple Pikmin]]. If you have less than 20 Purple Pikmin, then use Red Pikmin instead.

 

You should use an ultra-spicy spray in this battle, and if you have any, [[ultra-bitter spray]] is also advised. If you have ultra-spicy spray, spray your Pikmin before the Burrowing Snagret starts emerging from the ground. If you have an ultra-bitter spray, then spray the Snagret when it firsts emerges. After this, throw a steady stream of Pikmin onto the Snagret's head.

 

Once the Burrowing Snagret has been defeated, it will leave behind the [[Five-man Napsack]]. After obtaining this, you can hold {{button|gc|x|wii|c}} to have the controlled leader [[lie down|take a nap]]. After obtaining the Five-man Napsack, go across the arena and to the exit geyser.
