'''Figworts''' ({{j|モモフグリ|Momo Fuguri|Pink {{w|Veronica persica|Bird's Eye}}}}) are tall, flowering plants used as scenery in the four main {{pg}}.
'''Figworts''' are tall, flowering plants used as scenery in the three main [[Pikmin series|''Pikmin'' games]].


In ''[[Pikmin (game)|Pikmin]]'', figwort plants sport bright blue flowers. In ''[[Pikmin 2]]'', figwort blossoms have adopted a deep pinkish hue which is thought to be the result of differing soil conditions; in fact, the color of some real-world flowering plants, {{w|Hydrangea macrophylla|bigleaf hydrangeas}} in particular, can vary from blue to pink/purple, depending on the {{w|Acid|acidity}} or {{w|Base (chemistry)|alkalinity}} of the soil in which they grow. Although ''Pikmin 2'' does not have the [[#Insects|tiny black bugs]] from the first game, figworts may conceal larger creatures such as [[Doodlebug]]s or [[Unmarked Spectralids]]. In certain above-ground and cave locations, such as the [[Wistful Wild]] and [[White Flower Garden]], dead or dormant figworts can be seen, possessing pale or red-orange leaves and without flowers. In ''[[Pikmin 3]]'', only the blue figwort plant appears, being referred to as '''Bird's Eye'''{{cite web|https://tcrf.net/Pikmin_3#Unused_Lock-on_text|Pikmin_3|The Cutting Room Floor|rname=lockon}} ({{j|オオイヌノフグリ|Ōinunofuguri|Bird's Eye}}).

In the first game, touching certain flower clusters will release a swarm of tiny black bugs sometimes referred to by fans simply as "figwort insects". They fly around for a bit and quickly retreat, and cannot be interacted with whatsoever. These bugs also appear around some [[clover]]s, and even in isolated spots, such as behind the rusty can next to the [[Eternal Fuel Dynamo]]. No information about them is provided in the game. The plants they inhabit also show no signs of disease, so the relationship between the insects and plants is likely commensal in nature.
