'''Pellet Posies''' are a species of plants common to the [[Pikmin Planet]]. They possess a unique trait which allows them to crystalise nectar into small [[pellet]]s; the main way for [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] to propagate. When a Pikmin cuts one down, it drops a pellet, these come in different sizes and colors: 1s, 5s, 10s and 20s, with red, yellow, and blue pellets; although there are 5, 10, and 20 pellets in [[Pikmin 1]], Pellet Posies which actually grow those pellets are not seen until [[Pikmin 2]]. Some of these plants' pellets change color at regular intervals, similarly to the [[Queen Candypop Bud]]s, and drop an appropriate pellet when the plant itself is taken down. If a Pikmin is thrown and lands on the pellet or upper stem the plant will automatically succumb and drop the pellet that is present when the Pikmin hits. This allows players to get the color of pellet they deem most important. All Pellet Posies have the same health, regardless of color or the number on the pellet they carry. | '''Pellet Posies''' are a species of plants common to the [[Pikmin Planet]].

In Pikmin 1, the best place to find them is in [[The Impact Site]], where many can be found around the landing site. Many 1 Pellets can be found in the main plain in the [[Forest of Hope]]. In the [[Forest Navel]] a lot can also be found. | In Pikmin 1, the best place to find them is in [[The Impact Site]], where many can be found around the landing site.

As a sidenote, 10- and 20-weight Pellet Posies only appear in the [[Awakening Wood]] and the [[Valley of Repose]] in the Pikmin 2 world. There are three 10s found in the Awakening Wood, located to the left of the landing site, near the location of the [[Pilgrim Bulb]]. The yellow 10 is near one of the [[Burgeoning Spiderwort|Burgeoning Spiderworts]], located on a ledge, ideal for the use of [[Yellow Pikmin]] to attack and retrieve the pellet. The other two (red and blue) are at ground level. The only 20-weight pellet in the game is situated on the ledge that is left around from where the [[Sunseed Berry]] is found. This 20 intermittently changes color, so time carefully when cutting it down to get the desired color of pellet. It will appear starting on Day 11, and will respawn five days after collected. The only special Pellet Posy in the Valley of Repose is a 10-pellet, and it changes colors; starting on Day 4, it can be found on a ledge in the vicinity of the rocket.{{clear}} | As a sidenote, 10- and 20-weight Pellet Posies only appear in the [[Awakening Wood]] and the [[Valley of Repose]] in the Pikmin 2 world.

Swarm it. If you want a certain color, wait until just before it turns that color, then swarm it, or throw a Pikmin directly at the petals. Throwing a Pikmin directly at the pellet will give more accuracy if the player can get the timing right. | Swarm it.
