They grow a ''[[chaenostoma cordatum]]'' atop their stems. In ''[[Pikmin (game)|Pikmin]]'', flower Pikmin that die in battle have a chance of leaving behind a sprout that appears the following [[day]]. The color of a Pikmin's flower is the same as the color of its bud.

In ''Pikmin'' and ''Pikmin 2'', a flower Pikmin twirls horizontally in the air after it reaches the apex of its [[throw]] arc. When it does this, it falls down slightly slower than leaf or bud Pikmin. This twirl also makes the Pikmin lose some horizontal momentum, which makes leaf and bud Pikmin fall farther in a throw than Yellow Pikmin. Purple Pikmin do not have this twirl, since they pound after the apex. This maturity difference does not exist in the ''[[New Play Control!]]'' remakes.
