Pellet Posy
Amplus nutrio
Pellet Posies are the main producer plants for Pikmin to propagate. When a Pikmin cuts one down, it drops a pellet. These come in different sizes and colors, 1s, 5s, 10s, and 20s. Some of these plants change color over time, similarly to the Queen Candypop Buds, becoming the color of pellet it glows when it is cut down. If a Pikmin lands on the pellet when it is on the flower, the flower quickly and automatically dies. All Pellet Posies have the same health, regardless of color or the number on the pellet they carry.
Pellet Posies only appear in the Valley of Repose and the Awakening Wood, however pellets can be found on all above ground worlds, usually as a drop from enemies. Never are they in caves. Pellet Posies, only 1's however, are still found in 2-Player Mode.
As a sidenote, 10s and 20s only appear in the Awakening Wood and the Valley of Repose in the Pikmin's ecosystem. There are only 3 10s found in the Awakening Wood, they are located to the left of the landing site. The yellow 10 is near one of the Burgeoning Spiderworts, located on a ledge, ideal for the use of Yellow Pikmin to attack and retrieve the pellet. The other two (red and blue) are on basic land. The only twenty in this region (also out of all four) is on the ledge on the opposite side where the Sunseed Berry is. This twenty, and the only twenty, actually changes colors, so time carefully when cutting it down to get the desired color of pellet, it will only appear after quite a few days, (and respawns when defeated after 2-4 days) approximately it starts appearing during Day 20 and over. The only special Pellet Posy in the Valley of Repose is a 10 pellet, and it changes colors, it is also right near your base on a ledge, but only appears after a certain amount of days.
