==Naming== | |||
A [[wikipedia:Posy|posy]] is a bouquet of flower in the real world, and the Pellet Posy is named such because it is a flower, but has a [[pellet]] in the center. Its scientific name is ''amplus nutrio'', which is Latin for "ample nutrients", due to the pellets it generates being a great resource for Pikmin. In ''Pikmin'', the plant is internally known as <code>palm</code>, perhaps alluring to palm trees, but is simply called <code>pelplant</code> in ''Pikmin 2'', which is short for "pellet plant". | |||

*[[Pikmin prerelease information|Early models]] of Pellet Posies in ''Pikmin'' have spiky stems, and when killed, instead of the petals falling off and the pellet falling flat on its back, the pellets remain sideways and the petals disappear in purple lights. | *[[Pikmin prerelease information|Early models]] of Pellet Posies in ''Pikmin'' have spiky stems, and when killed, instead of the petals falling off and the pellet falling flat on its back, the pellets remain sideways and the petals disappear in purple lights. | ||
