The '''Bee Mushroom''' is a yellow [[mushroom]] with brown stripes on the cap which acts as a power-up in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]'' and its sequel, ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]''. The mushroom is first found in the [[Honeyhive Galaxy]] after collecting a [[? Coin]]. It is also found in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]'' in a few other galaxies. Once [[Mario]] or [[Luigi]] collect the Power-up they will become [[Bee Mario]] or [[Bee Mario|Bee Luigi]] and will then be able to [[fly]] for a limited time, climb [[honey wall]]s and cling to the [[Honey Queen|Queen Bee]]. Bee Mario is also uniquely capable of standing on [[Flower (platform)|flowers]] and [[Cloud Lift|clouds]]. By collecting a [[coin]], Bee Mario and Bee Luigi can fly a little longer. If Mario or Luigi touch water when they have on their [[Bee Mario|Bee Suit]], they will go back to their normal form. It also appears in the [[Honeyclimb Galaxy]], [[Gold Leaf Galaxy]], [[Sea Slide Galaxy]] and [[Sand Spiral Galaxy]]. In ''Super Mario Galaxy 2'', it appears in the [[Honeybloom Galaxy]] and the [[Honeyhop Galaxy]]. Also, once Mario or Luigi gets 120 [[Power Star]]s, a Bee Mushroom will appear in the [[Tall Trunk Galaxy]] in the ending credits.

Transforming into Bee Mario
When Mario comes across a Bee Mushroom, he has the opportunity to undergo a remarkable transformation. Upon consumption, Mario is instantly transformed into Bee Mario, sprouting wings on his back and antennae on his head. This transformation opens up a whole new world of possibilities for our favorite plumber.

Flying Abilities
One of the most exciting aspects of the Bee Mushroom power-up is the ability for Mario to take flight. As Bee Mario, players can navigate through levels, reaching great heights and exploring previously inaccessible areas. The joy of soaring through the sky as a bee-like Mario is an exhilarating experience that truly sets this power-up apart.

Walking on Clouds and Flowers
In addition to flying, Bee Mario has the unique ability to walk on clouds and flowers. This opens up new pathways and strategic opportunities for players. Walking on clouds and flowers adds a new dimension to gameplay, allowing Mario to reach hidden platforms and uncover secret treasures.

Sticky Situations
Another remarkable feature of the Bee Mushroom power-up is the ability for Bee Mario to stick to honeycombs. This sticky ability comes in handy when navigating challenging terrain or dodging obstacles. By clinging to honeycombs, Bee Mario gains an advantage and can safely traverse hazardous areas that would otherwise be difficult to cross.

Expert Insights on the Bee Mushroom
To gain a deeper understanding of the Bee Mushroom, we spoke to renowned video game expert, Dr. Elements. According to Dr. Elements, "The Bee Mushroom power-up in Super Mario is an incredible addition to the game. It offers players a unique and thrilling experience, allowing them to explore levels from a whole new perspective. The flying ability adds a sense of freedom and excitement, while the adhesive properties of Bee Mario provide a strategic advantage. It's definitely one of my favorite power-ups in the Super Mario series."
