Creeping Chrysanthemums are arguably a lot harder to spot than they were in ''Pikmin 2'' because their eyes no longer glow and they typically keep their eyelids shut. An easy way to tell a Creeping Crystanthemum from a normal flower is to look at the yellow centre of the flower. Creeping Chrysanthemums have a small slit in the centre where their eyelids are and are smoothly textured instead of having visable anthers. Quick reaction times on the whistle can also prevent any casualties if caught off guard. | Creeping Chrysanthemums are arguably a lot harder to spot than they were in ''Pikmin 2'' because their eyes no longer glow and they typically keep their eyelids shut.
