Bacopa Cabana, also known as The Pikmin Flower, is a cultivated species of flower named after the Pikmin series and bred with the intention of using it to market the first game.[1] Nintendo announced the impending creation of the flower through an agreement with S&G Flowers USA in late 2001, and it became commercially available in April the following year, 5 months after the release of the game. The flower is now quite rare due to the late release of Pikmin 3 causing it to fall out of popularity.
