'''Floro Sapiens''' are a race of plant-like creatures that appear in ''[[Super Paper Mario]]''. They loosely resemble [[Crazee Dayzee]]s, except with stem-like bodies. Under control of [[King Croacus IV]], the king of the Floro Sapiens, they began to die after the [[Cragnon]] race began polluting the waters which the Floro Sapiens drank. King Croacus, when not using his people to build him a palace filled with jewels, brainwashed the Cragnons with [[Floro Sprout]]s in order to stop his race from dying off.

Throughout Chapters [[Village of Crag|5-1]] and [[Mount Crag|5-2]], [[Mario]], [[Princess Peach]], [[Bowser]], and [[Tippi]] found themselves chasing down a band of Floro Sapiens carrying Cragnon prisoners. Eventually, the party discovered the secret entrance to the [[Floro Caverns]], where the Floro Sapiens had their base of operations.

Floro Sapiens' petals come in three colors: yellow, orange, and purple. Statistic-wise and action-wise, all Floro Sapiens are exactly the same, sans their color; however the game implies that their color notates their role in the Floro Sapiens kingdom, similar to [[Toad (species)|Toads]]: the yellow Floro Sapiens are the commoners, the orange Floro Sapiens are the military generals, and the purple Floro Sapiens are the royal guards.

==Trivia==
*The Floro Sapiens' name comes from "flora" (meaning "plantlife") and ''sapiens'', Latin for wise. However, their name could much more simply be a combination of the term "flora", and ''"Homo sapiens"'', the scientific name for [[Human|humans]].
*Oddly enough, after the player completes Chapter 5, the Floro Sapiens supposedly turn good; however, they will still continue to attack Mario and the other heroes if they revisit the world.
*The Floro Sapiens' attack method of throwing their heads is extremely similar to that of the ''[[Super Mario Land]]'' enemy [[Mekabon]], who could also survive without a head.
*The Floro Sapiens could be a reference to an identical enemy named "Lovely", found in ''Kirby Superstar''.

-'''Floro Sapiens''' are a race of plant-like creatures that appear in ''[[Super Paper Mario]]''. Their name is a pun on the scientific name for humans, ''Homo sapiens'' (Latin for "wise man"), replacing the genus name for ''Flora'', meaning "plant life" (making their full name "wise plant" in Latin). They slightly resemble [[Crazee Dayzee]]s, except with stem-like bodies. Their faces are black and featureless except for a thin pie-cut mouth that is visible when they talk. Their leader is [[King Croacus IV]], who goes crazy after the [[Cragnon]] race inadvertently pollutes the Floro Sapiens' water with their wastes. The pollution sickens other Floro Sapiens as well, and in retaliation, they begin to kidnap Cragnons, brainwashing them with [[Floro Sprout]]s and having them help mine the [[Floro Caverns]] for jewels for King Croacus' palace. Floro Sapiens appear to speak with typical [[wikipedia:Hippie|hippie]] accents, as well as share other counterculture mannerisms such as opposing pollution and being associated with flowers.

-Floro Sapiens' petals come in three colors: yellow, orange, and purple. Statistic-wise, all Floro Sapiens are the same, however and are no stronger than any other. They attack by throwing their heads, and even if the head is destroyed, the bodies can continue functioning.

-Throughout Chapters [[Village of Crag|5-1]] and [[Gap of Crag|5-2]], [[Mario]], [[Princess Peach]], [[Bowser]], and [[Tippi]] find themselves chasing down a band of Floro Sapiens carrying Cragnon prisoners. The Floro Sapiens will attack the player unless they are wearing a dead Floro Sprout on their head, fooling the flowers into thinking they are brainwashed and harmless. Eventually, the party discovers the secret entrance to the Floro Caverns and eventually defeat King Croacus, uncovering the truth about the pollution. The entire story is recorded by the Cragnon documentarian [[Flint Cragley]], who vows to show the footage to his people and put a stop to the pollution, thus ending the feud between the two races.
