'''Lava | A '''Lava Lotus''' is an artificial flower<ref>"''An artificial flower that grows and blooms deep in the sea. Look out for the lava balls that it will release.''" - ''Super Mario Bros. 3'' English instruction booklet, page 36.</ref> that lives underwater in ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]''. It resembles a large translucent version of [[Panser]] from ''[[Super Mario Bros. 2]]''. Lava Lotuses are capable of creating and storing [[lava]] balls under their transparent petals and attack by opening up to release them. The lava balls can go through [[platform]]s and make navigating underwater difficult. The number they shoot out is random and can be up to five at a time. The lava balls travel rather slowly and in a straight line from their point of release. They can be defeated only by [[Hammer Mario]] or [[Invincible Mario]]. | ||

A single Lava Lotus appears briefly in the episode "[[Oh, Brother!]]" of ''[[The Adventures of Super Mario Bros. 3]]''. This Lava Lotus unleashes its lava balls on [[Frog Mario|Frog Luigi]], who manages to swim past them with ease. | |||
In the book ''[[Dinosaur Dilemma]]'', [[Mario]] avoids some Lava Lotuses while collecting [[coin]]s in [[Lake Trilobite]]. | |||
According to ''[[Nintendo Power]]'', Lava Lotuses have a relation to [[Piranha Plant]]s,<ref>"''An aquatic relative of the Piranha Plants, the Lotus spits fiery lava bits.''" – ''Nintendo Power'' Volume 13, page 9.</ref> despite there being no such indication in the original instruction booklet. | |||
