The ''Sutera cordata'' are a perennial type of plant (reoccurring every year). Also they are an Evergreen, which means that even in the harsh winter climate and lack of sun, the plants leafs can retain its green color. As an added bonus, the flowers can live through the same weather. This real life logic can be placed into the Pikmin world. The Red Pikmin are shown in Pikmin 2 in a harsh snowy landscape with the Pikmin’s leaf green and bright. Even in such climates the flowers can bloom in real life. The record for the ''Sutera cordata''is -1.1 degrees C and 30 degrees F | The ''Sutera cordata'' are a perennial type of plant (reoccurring every year).

Mr. Miyamoto must have had this in mind for the Pikmin to be strong and durable creatures. | ||
