Special Spots appear at defined locations on the [[Pikmin Bloom interface#Map|map]]. They have a small circle on the ground surrounding them, and this circle can vary in size. If the player is inside the radius, the flower will glow and it will be possible to receive rewards from it; otherwise the flower will not glow.

Tapping on a Special Spot will open an information screen about it, with a brand logo appearing on the flower's bulb. Swiping down on the flower when it is glowing will make it drop a [[Gold Seedling]] with 40 nectar of a predetermined type and color also awarded if the Special Spot is for a [[Event#Live events|live event]]. The type of [[Decor Pikmin]] this seedling grows into depends on the Special Spot, as does the frequency at which players can get the Seedlings, and the maximum amount of Seedlings a Special Spot can give.{{cite web|https://niantic.helpshift.com/hc/en/23-pikmin-bloom/faq/3623-special-spot/|Special Spot|Pikmin Bloom Help Center|retrieved={{date|1|October|2022}}}}
