'''Wonder Seeds''', also spelled '''Wonderseeds''',<ref>{{cite| author = Nintendo 公式チャンネル | date = June 21, 2023 | url = www.youtube.com/watch?v=tTMMSC4xP1c | title = Nintendo Direct 2023.6.21 | publisher = {{wp|YouTube}} | accessdate = September 3, 2023 }}</ref> are collectable items in ''[[Super Mario Bros. Wonder]]''. In their debut game, they form a reward for fulfilling certain tasks, such as completing a course or challenge, and collecting them is required to open up some courses. They feature brown coats which cover their lower and rear areas; the exposed portion of the embryo features a pair of white eyes, a green shoot, and brightly colored {{wp|cotyledons}}, with iridescent diamond markings similar to those found on a [[Wonder Flower]].

In ''Super Mario Bros. Wonder'', each standard level contains at least two Wonder Seeds, with one always rewarded to players for completing a level and rescuing a [[Poplin]], while another is found after triggering the level's [[Wonder Effect]], which the Wonder Seed ends upon being collected. Levels with a secret exit contain a third Wonder Seed, while levels without a Wonder Flower (Break Times!, Search Parties, Badge Challenges, Wiggler Races, KO Arenas, most Poplin houses and [[The Final-Final Test Badge Marathon]]), [[Airship|flying battleships]], [[Castle|palaces]] and [[Operation Poplin Rescue]] contain only one. [[The Final Battle! Bowser's Rage Stage]] is the only level with no Wonder Seeds. Completing the final level in each world rewards the player with a [[Royal Seed]], a larger and more powerful type of Wonder Seed.

Wonder Seeds are used to defeat [[Wonder Piranha]] blocking access to levels in the overworld, functioning similarly to [[Star Medal]]s in ''[[Super Mario 3D Land]]'' and [[Green Star]]s in ''[[Super Mario 3D World]]''. They also bear a similarity to ''[[Super Mario Odyssey]]''{{'}}s [[Power Moon]]s, being able to be bought in [[Poplin Shop|shops]] and changing their color depending on the region within the game. The Wonder Seed's color matches their world's [[Wonder Flower]] and [[Wow Bud]]: blue for [[Pipe-Rock Plateau]], cyan for [[Fluff-Puff Peaks]], pink for [[Shining Falls]], yellow for the [[Sunbaked Desert]], green for the [[Fungi Mines]], purple for [[Deep Magma Bog]], orange for the [[Petal Isles]], and white for the [[Special World]].

 

After a Wonder Seed is collected, it becomes gray and transparent when re-entering the level. With the exception of the Special World, 100 [[flower coin]]s are awarded for collecting all Wonder Seeds in each world. There are a total of 225 Wonder Seeds in the game, and collecting all seeds will award one of six [[Completion#Super Mario Bros. Wonder|medals]] to the player's current save file.
