'''Venus Flower Traps''' are enemies that only appear in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]''. They only appear in the [[Honeybloom Galaxy]] and the [[Honeyhop Galaxy]]. Venus Flower Traps resemble flowers and can be used as platforms, but if [[Mario]] or [[Luigi]] steps on one of these, it will soon close up, devouring any object on it. If Mario or Luigi is swallowed, he will lose a wedge of health. Venus Flower Traps are usually airborne or floating over shallow ponds. After snapping shut for a few seconds, it reopens and can be used again. They resemble [[Piranha Plant]]s because they look similar when they close their mouth. One can avoid lasting damage from these, though. If a coin is floating above it, one can get trapped by the flower and spat into the coin, having full health but still flashing red from damage. Since no power-ups can defeat them, Venus Flower Traps are invincible.

Coincidentally, the way in which they move their mouths is similar to the Piranha Plants in ''[[Mario Kart 64]]''.
