Several large flat leaves appear in the background of the [[Perplexing Pool]], serving no other purpose than decoration. The leaves' stems connect at the bottom, characteristic mainly to tropical plants. Its species name would probably be ''[[wikipedia:Leaf shape|peltata]]''.

{{clean|Are they the same thing then or not?}}
There is an unknown red object that appears in all ''Pikmin'' games. It is either a red-leafed plant or a red mushroom. It is quite common in ''Pikmin'', appearing in every area. In ''Pikmin 2'', this same red-leafed plant only appears in the [[Valley of Repose]] near the landing area, covered in snow. In ''Pikmin 3'' the plant becomes a trio of mushrooms found only in the [[Tropical Wilds]]; they make a unique sound when disturbed. This new mushroom's look could be based on ''[[wikipedia:Mycena haematopus|mycena haematopus]]''.

===Succulents===
===Succulents===
The [[Formidable Oak]] in ''Pikmin 3'' features numerous different variants of cacti and succulent plants. These include ''[[wikipedia:Haworthia attenuata|haworthia attenuata]]'', stout [[wikipedia:Barrel cactus|barrel cacti]], [[wikipedia:Aeonium|aeonium succulents]], and large columnar cacti in the distance. The Formidable Oak also houses some more ambiguous but unique flora, including inflorescences of pink wildflowers, sprouts and tufts of dry grasses, and even some tiny lichens in the center of the arena area. Most of these succulents and some of the flower types are also used in the [[Thirsty Desert]] and [[Thirsty Desert Remix|its remix]] in [[Mission Mode]].
