'''Queen Candypop Buds''' ({{j|ポポガシグサ|Popogashi Gusa}}) are [[Candypop Bud]]s found in ''[[Pikmin 2]]'', quite different from the others in the game. They allow the player to gain up to 8 [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] if a single one of any type is [[throw]]n in. The flower's spots alternate between red, blue and yellow, presenting the player with an opportunity, with correct timing, to choose between receiving [[Blue Pikmin|Blue]], [[Red Pikmin|Red]] or [[Yellow Pikmin]].  Only as many more Pikmin as can exist on the field are produced; if there are already [[Pikmin limit|100]], the Pikmin thrown in just changes type.  The plant withers after it has been used once.
'''''Flora regina'''''


These flowers are found only in certain sublevels of difficult [[cave]]s, usually immediately before or after a particularly challenging [[boss]] battle. These areas are usually void of [[Enemy|enemies]], so they are sometimes referred to as "[[Rest Sublevel|rest sublevels]]"; they contain other such useful things as [[eggs]] and other types of [[Candypop Bud]].
'''Queen Candypop Buds''' are very unique [[Candypop Buds]], they allow you to gain up to 8 Pikmin if you throw '''any''' color in. Nine Pikmin pop out, but one was the one you threw in. The only colors you may get are the primary colors, red, yellow, and blue. These flowers are found only in the specific sublevels of difficult caves, usually after a previous, grueling battle with a boss, sometimes referred to as 'rest stops'.


Queen Candypop Buds are far more common in ''Pikmin 2's'' [[Challenge Mode (Pikmin 2)|Challenge Mode]] than in the main game, mostly appearing where the player starts off with very few Pikmin, such as [[Breeding Ground]], [[Hot House]] and [[Hidden Garden]].
