In ''Super Mario Galaxy'', rubbery bulbs appear in various [[galaxy|galaxies]], most notably the [[Good Egg Galaxy]]. Their main purpose is to defeat foes that cannot be defeated via conventional methods. If [[Mario]] or [[Luigi]] hits one of them with a [[spin]], the plant will stretch in the opposite direction, hitting any enemy or obstacle in the way. If it fails to hit an obstacle or an enemy, it will come right back and hit the player character, causing him to fall back and drop some [[Star Bit]]s. If one is [[Ground Pound|ground-pounded]] or run over by an enemy such as a [[boulder|Ruby Rock]] or a [[Chain Chomp|Chomp]], it will become flattened and unusable for a short period of time.


Rubbery bulbs appear during the final fight with [[Bowser]] at [[Bowser's Galaxy Reactor]], being seen in the second phase of the final battle where Mario can use them as protection against Bowser's [[fireball]]s. Using them to attack is mandatory since Bowser cannot be attacked normally by spinning and there are no lava pools to disrupt his attacks.
'''Stretch Plants''' are a species of plant appearing in the game ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]'' and ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]''. They appear as green plants with a bulbous head and a thin, stretchy stem.


====''Super Mario Galaxy 2''====
==History==
Bulbs are objects in ''Super Mario Galaxy 2''. They are encountered in [[Sky Station Galaxy]], the [[Freezy Flake Galaxy]], and [[Battle Belt Galaxy]]. Bulbs keep their same appearance and use from the previous game, but they are less common. They are now used to defeat certain enemies such as [[Prickly Piranha Plant]]s and [[Homing Chomp]]s. [[Spindleburr]]s, a spiky variant, also make an appearance.

===''Mario Party 10''===
In ''Super Mario Galaxy'', Stretch Plants appear in various [[galaxy|galaxies]], most notably the [[Good Egg Galaxy]]. If Mario or Luigi hit one with a [[spin]], it will stretch in the opposite direction, hitting any enemy or obstacle in the way. If it fails to hit an obstacle or an enemy, it will come right back and hit the plumber, causing him to fall back and lose some [[Star Bit]]s. If one is [[Ground Pound|ground pounded]] or run over by an enemy such as a Boulder or a Chomp, it will become flattened and unusable for a short period of time.
Small bulbs are background elements in ''[[Mario Party 10]]''. Three of them can be seen on the [[Rosalina Board]], on a grassy field with two [[Luma]]s and a flower bed in the northwestern part.

Stretch Plants make an appearance yet again. However, they are uncommon, only appearing in the [[Sky Station Galaxy]], [[Freezy Flake Galaxy]] and [[Battle Belt Galaxy]]. They keep their same appearance and use from the previous game. This time, they are used to defeat certain enemies such as [[Prickly Piranha Plant]]s and [[Silver Chomp]]s.


====Spiny Stretch Plant====
Another kind of Stretch Plant appears as an enemy in the [[Honeybloom Galaxy]] during the events of the game. They are called '''Spiny Stretch Plants''' and they have red, retractable spikes. Unlike regular Stretch Plants, they are able to physically move themselves and will therefore try to hurt [[Mario]] or [[Luigi]] by extending their spiky ends at them. However, they cannot reach very far.
