'''Tall Trunk Galaxy''' is one of the many galaxies in the game ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]''. The level takes place in a peaceful forest with a huge tree. The tree has many branches which can be climbed to reach the top. The level will turn from 3D to 2D where Mario will need to travel through indents in the tree. [[Scuttlebug]]s are common enemies here. Many spiked enemies and electric enemies also patrol the area.

Many [[thorny flower|prickly plant]]s appear to hinder the player and [[Spoing]]s are common enemies here. The [[Whittle]] species resides here. The music that plays in the slide segments is an arrangement of "[[Slider]]" from ''[[Super Mario 64]]''.

Here, the player will land on the base of an enormous tree. During the [[The Flotacious Blimp Fruit]] mission, [[Yoshi]] can be found on the bottom of the planet as well as numerous [[Crystal (Super Mario Galaxy)|Crystal]]s with [[Star Bit]]s and [[coin]]s. [[Spoing]]s and [[Spangler]]s appear on the tree during the said mission and only a single [[Whittle]] appears. The use of [[Blimp Yoshi]] is required to reach the [[Launch Star]]. During the [[Tall Trunk's Big Slide]] mission, Yoshi is not found nor Spoings and Spanglers. The player will need to use the [[Vine]]s to get to the top of the tree and to the Launch Star. A significant amount of Whittles can be found here during the said mission. It is possible to climb up the big tree without Yoshi by using different jumps, wall jumps, and spins.  
This is the starting planet, and consists of a large tree over a small piece of land. Mario can find in this planet some [[Item Crystal]]s underneath the planet and [[Yoshi]] inside his [[Yoshi Egg|egg]]. The plumber needs Yoshi to eat the [[Blimp Berry|Blimp Berries]] found in the place to reach the platforms surrounding the tree's trunk. In the uppermost part of the trunk there is a [[Launch Star]] over a platform that Mario and Yoshi take to depart to the next planet of the galaxy. In the second mission, Yoshi is not found. Instead, there are several [[Whittle]]s and swings.

The Wood Drum Planet<ref name=Noclip></ref> is a large log, and is the next site for the player to arrive from the Big Tree Planet during [[The Flotacious Blimp Fruit]] mission. Here, the player and Yoshi will move around the planet in side-scrolling effect to collect five yellow [[Star Chip]]s and create another [[Launch Star]]. A [[Checkpoint Flag]], a [[Comet Medal]] and some [[Blimp Fruit]] are also found on the planet. [[Thorny flower|Prickly plant]]s can prove to be a nuisance when collecting the Star Chips. This planet has an up and down rotational gravity field, so Mario cannot fall off this planet.

The Wood Circle Cut Planet<ref name=Noclip></ref> is a huge section of a trunk with a passage in it where the player arrives. Here, the heroes find another Midway Flag, [[Star Bit]]s and Blimp Berries. Just as in the Wood Drum Planet, the exploration in this planet is in a side-scrolling manner. In [[The Flotacious Blimp Fruit]] mission, there is a [[Power Star]] that Mario must get by going up in the passage with the help of Yoshi eating the Blimp Fruits, while evading some obstacles such as the [[Paragoomba]]s and prickly plants.

The planet is a long and hollow trunk. Mario arrives in this planet to slide down throughout the trunk. [[Wiggler]]s and Spiky Plants can be found here. This planet is first visited in the galaxy's second mission. A remix of the [[The Princess's Secret Slide]] theme from ''[[Super Mario 64]]'' is played here. In some parts, Mario will have to jump to different segments of the planet.

====Tube Slider Start Planet====
The Tube Slider Start Planet<ref name=Noclip></ref> is a grassy platform on top of a large tree, connected to a giant, half-hollowed log where three Whittles and the access to the Tube Slider Course are found.


====Tube Slider Course====
===Goal Planet===
The Tube Slider Course<ref name=Noclip></ref> is a long, winding hollow trunk. [[Wiggler]]s and [[thorny flower|prickly plant]]s can be found here. There are a few [[Spiny|Spinies]] in the beginning and many gaps in the slide, as well as many [[balloon (Super Mario Galaxy 2)|balloon]]s scattered throughout. This planet is first visited in the galaxy's second mission, [[Tall Trunk's Big Slide]]. At the end of the slide, the player will land on the Tube Slider Goal Planet, and be rewarded with a [[Power Star]], depending on the mission's requirements.
It is a planet with a tall tree and a [[1-Up Mushroom]] behind it. There are also some Whittles that congratulate Mario for getting to the end of the Trunk Slide Planet and will reward him with a star.


====Tube Slider Goal Planet====
==Levels==
The Tube Slider Goal Planet<ref name=Noclip></ref> is found directly at the end of the Tube Slider Course Planet, and has nothing more than three Whittles and a few giant trees. When [[Mario]] lands here, a Whittle (or a [[Gearmo]], during the purple coin mission) will reward him with the [[Power Star]] for that mission. This planet also appears in the credits, and once one has gained 120 Power Stars or more, a [[Bee Mushroom]] will appear on it too, alongside four Whittles.
===The Flotacious Blimp Fruit===
{{br}}
Mario starts this mission in the starting planet. Here, the plumber must find Yoshi hidden underneath the piece of land of the tree so that the dinosaur can take the Blimp Fruits and become a balloon to reach the platforms surrounding the tree's trunk. In case Yoshi has used all the air, he can take again the blue fruits in some platforms and keep going up to reach the uppermost part of the trunk. Over one platform, The plumber and the dinosaur will find a [[Launch Star]] that will send to the Log planet. There, after taking the [[Midway Point|Midway Flag]], it is needed to collect the [[Star Chip]]s scattered in the planet, providing mainly with the Blimp Fruits to reach some inaccesible parts where Star Chips are found. Collecting all the pieces, another Launch Star forms, and the heroes will arrive to the Trunk Wheel planet. Mario and Yoshi again find another Midway Flag and a [[Power Star]]. However, they need to fall first from a passageway that leads to an area with a Blimp Fruit that Yoshi eats and so propel towards the Star. Paragoombas and floating [[Spiky Plant]]s will hinder the path of Yoshi and Mario to reach the star, but many Blimp Fruits in the way can be taken to keep going up and get finally the Star.

===Tall Trunk's Big Slide===
<gallery>
In this level Mario must use swings to reach the top platform on the starting planet to reach the Launch Star. It should be noted that the level's original music changes when doing this challenge. After Mario uses the Launch Star he will be taken to a planet with a Midway Flag and several Whittles. Mario can then enter the slide and The Princess's Secret Slide music will start playing. The slide is a long and hollow log. It has many obstacles such as pits, Spinies and Wigglers. There are balloons throughout the slide that Mario or the player can pop for extra Star Bits. When Mario gets to the end there are more Whittles. When Mario talks to one it will give him the Power Star. This level has a Cosmic Guide.

==Missions==
===Tall Trunk's Purple Coin Slide===
{{SMG missions table|sortable=yes
Mario must collect 100 [[Purple Coin]]s for a [[Gearmo]]. The first 4 are before the slide entrance. There are 136 more coins on the slide, so a maximum of 40 can be missed. Like in [[Rolling Coaster Galaxy]], [[Battlerock Galaxy]], and [[Dreadnought Galaxy]] if Mario reach the end without a total of 100 coins, he won't get the [[Power Star]], hang his head in shame, and lose a life. So remember to [[Spin Jump]] over the spiky plants and dodge the [[Wigglers]]. The slide is still the same, but don't forget to grab the [[1-Up Mushroom]].

====Green Star 1====
[[File:SMG2 Tall Trunk Green Star 1.png|thumb|200px|Mario and Blimp Yoshi floating to the green star.]]
The player will redo [[The Flotacious Blimp Fruit]] mission. However, instead of going for the [[Launch Star]], the player should make their way to the area with the [[Life Mushroom]]. Directly above it is the [[Green Star]], which can be easily be obtained by the use of Yoshi.

Green Star 1 is located above the Life Shroom on one of the highest branches of the Tree Planet.
The player will redo the [[The Flotacious Blimp Fruit]] mission again. This time, they should make their way over to the [[#Wood Drum Planet|Wood Drum Planet]]. To get to the Green Star, the player will simply need to fall down the area they are standing on until they see the star in the upper left-hand corner of the log. The player will need to use [[Yoshi]]'s [[Flutter Jump]] though.

Green Star 2 can be reached by jumping down from the first ledge of the Log Planet, going to the left and dropping down the opening, and when possible, Flutter Jump with Yoshi to the left to the star.
The player will redo the [[Tall Trunk's Big Slide]] mission. They will need to take the slide in order to reach the star, located near the end. When the player gets close to the area with the angry [[Wiggler]]s, they must go upside-down on the slide and jump to the Green Star.
