This article or section needs to be cleaned up, either its format or general style. |
The flower upon a mature Pikmin is called (Sutera cordata) or commonly known as the Bacopa. This was used to model the white, five petaled, yellow centered flowers that rest on top of the first generation of Pikmin species, as well as the Bulbmin in the second generation of Pikmin. Sutera cordata also come in different colors as well, white, lavender (violet), and magenta/violet (pink/purple). So far in the Pikmin species all three of these colors have been used.
The Sutera cordata are a perennial type of plant (reoccurring every year). Also they are an Evergreen, which means that even in the harsh winter climate and lack of sun, the plants leafs can retain its green color. As an added bonus, the flowers can live through the same weather. This real life logic can be placed into the Pikmin world. The Red Pikmin are shown in Pikmin 2 in a harsh snowy landscape with the Pikmin’s leaf green and bright. Even in such climates the flowers can bloom in real life. The record for the Sutera cordatais -1.1 degrees C and 30 degrees F Sutera cordata are remarkably strong plants. Mr. Miyamoto must have had this in mind for the Pikmin to be strong and durable creatures.
The different variants of the Sutera cordata are the Snowflake white and the Snowstorm Blue/Magenta. These flower are really easy to grow and take up sizable room in a garden or pot, these plants can live through below freezing winters and sizzling summers, making them a great addition to any garden. Sutera cordata can also be planted in the window sill and don’t worry if the petals fall off, they will regrow in two weeks.

This is the lavender color of the third generation of Pikmin.
