*The only place where Bulbmin can be buried – and hence, the only place where one can observe Bulbmin with buds – is the [[Frontier Cavern]], on sublevels 4 and 5. [[Swooping Snitchbug|Swooping Snitchbugs]] can plant them in the ground on sublevel 4, and they can be planted by [[Mamuta|Mamutas]] on sublevel 5.

*If the game is altered such that it allows Bulbmin on the surface, they will take refuge in the [[ship]]'s storage when the day ends, just like [[Purple Pikmin]] and [[White Pikmin]]. They will still count towards Olimar's Pikmin count, but they cannot be taken out of the ship the next morning. Like the other ship-dwelling colors, they will take fallen foes/[[Pellets]] to a random [[Onion]] and will tote any other objects, like berries, to their correct location. They will still be immune to all hazards.

*Bulbmin can actually be found in the game files of ''Pikmin 3'', despite them being absent in-game. Because of their model being identical to the one in  ''Pikmin 2'', it can be assumed that the idea of them returning was scrapped early in development.

*When juvenile Bulbmin perish, their spirits appear as any other enemies' spirits, not as Pikmin spirits. This may likely be due to how the Bulbmin find a bulborb host, in which the host ends up losing its life, as well.
