For fruits in Pikmin 3, see Fruit.

Fruits are items in Pikmin Bloom. They can be found on expeditions or mushroom battles, or picked up by Pikmin while walking, and they give the player nectar when collected. There are many different types of fruits, and they can be sorted into three categories based on how they are obtained.

Small fruits

Pikmin in the player's squad can randomly pick up small fruits nearby by themselves. Walking increases the chance of this happening. Each Pikmin can hold 1 fruit, and by tapping the Pikmin (either on the map screen or the garden screen), the fruit will be collected. Each fruit collected in this way produces a small amount of nectar of a specific type, with the type and amount of nectar being determined by the type of fruit. Forcing Pikmin out of the squad via double-tapping the whistle auto-collects any fruit held by the removed Pikmin.

These fruits can also be obtained through low scores in some types of mushroom battles. In this case, they can provide nectar of the listed color of a different species of flower.

Fruit Color of nectar Amount of nectar Rarity
Lime Lime Nectar White 3-8 Very common
Kumquat Kumquat Yellow nectar Yellow 2-3 Common
Cherry Cherry Red nectar Red 1 Less common
Strawberry Strawberry Red nectar Red 4-7 Uncommon
Blueberry Blueberry Blue nectar Blue 1 Rare

Large fruits

These fruits can be collected on expeditions. The player can select a fruit from the list of available expeditions, and assign Pikmin to go and collect it. All fruits have a weight of 6 weight units, and up to 12 Pikmin can be sent to carry them. Once the Pikmin are back, the fruit can be collected in the garden screen, and will give the player a good amount of nectar. For all large fruits except Plums, the amount of nectar provided is equal to a floored tenth of the fruit's listed mass in grams (so a 358g fruit will give 35 nectar). For Plums, the amount of nectar provided is equal to a floored eighth of the fruit's listed mass in grams (so a 112g fruit will give 14 nectar). The types of nectar listed are the normal types each fruit provides, but in some situations, such as if the fruit is produced by blooming a Big Flower, it can give nectar from a different species of flower (though the color will be the same).

These fruits can also be obtained through mushroom battles. In this case, they may provide rare nectar of the listed color, rather than basic nectar.

These fruits are the only ones to have names stated in-game, through the expedition menu.

Fruit Color of nectar Amount of nectar
Green Apple Green Apple Nectar White 26-51
Lemon Lemon Yellow nectar Yellow 15-36
Orange Orange Yellow nectar Yellow 25-47
Apple Apple Red nectar Red 23-46
Peach Peach Red nectar Red 23-46
Plum Plum Blue nectar Blue 10-20

Giant fruits

These fruits are only obtainable by getting very high scores on mushroom battles, scores so high that they are impossible to reach with only one player. They require 8 Pikmin to carry, regardless of strength, and give lots of nectar as a reward. The flower species of the nectar provided can vary.

Fruit Color of nectar Amount of nectar
Melon Melon Nectar White 83-122
Muscat grapes Muscat grapes Nectar White 45-75
Grapefruit Grapefruit Yellow nectar Yellow 74-120
Watermelon Watermelon Red nectar Red 58-118
Grapes Grapes Blue nectar Blue 40-78

In addition, there is one final type of fruit, the Special fruit special fruit. This gives 1 Special nectar special nectar when collected, and is obtained in the same way as giant fruits.
