- “Well, here we are! The Petal Meadows, where folks say a Crystal Star hides.”
- —Goombella, Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door
Petal Meadows (known as Star Crystal Field or Petal Plains[1] in the demo disk of the game) is a small area in the east, which leads to Petalburg and Hooktail Castle in the game Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door. Mario can reach this area by going through a certain gray Warp Pipe found in Rogueport Underground. The plateau is filled with many flowers, trees, and Candy Pops. The enemies found here include Goombas (as well as Goomba sub-species) and Koopa Troopas. It is the only place where Horsetails can be retrieved. East of Petalburg is a wooded area to Shhwonk Fortress called the Path to Shhwonk Fortress.
Petal Meadows is similar to Pleasant Path in Paper Mario.
Areas[edit]
Mario and Goombella first enter Petal Meadows from the stony pipe in Rogueport Underground. The first scene is straight; Mario can hit the left tree next to the Save Block and obtain a Star Piece and the right one for a Mushroom. Another Mushroom is found in a ? Block. When Mario and Goombella run across the grass, they hear a roar as Hooktail flies above them. Hooktail flies into the background and into her castle.
When Mario, Goombella, and Koops come to the stones, they have to place the Sun Stone and the Moon Stone in their proper slots, after which two ! Switches appear. A blue inscription magically appears on the Warp Pipe-shaped stone, which reads:
(GameCube version)
"Here beginneth the path to dread Hooktail Castle. Weaklings, retreateth! Ye who seeketh to proceed: a power of two must hitteth both switches simultaneously. *** Addendum *** If ye are a Petalburg Koopa, huzzah! Your HOLD ability maketh this chore a snap!"
(Switch version)
"Here beginneth the path to dread Hooktail Castle. Weaklings, retreateth! Ye who seeketh to proceed, a power of two must hitteth both switches simultaneously. *** Addendum *** This challenge is easyeth-peasyeth if ye use the skill of a Petalburg Koopa!"
Mario can press the switches simultaneously by using Koops' Shell Toss ability to hold when he jumps or swings his hammer. After activating the switches, the ground starts to vibrate and the stone is uncarved and reveals a real Warp Pipe to Hooktail Castle in the background.
In the second scene, there are three Goomba types in the yellow grass: regular Goombas, Paragoombas, and Spiky Goombas. There is a red ? Block that contains the Close Call badge, as well as a pipe that leads Mario up to the tall pipe where he can obtain the Happy Heart badge on top of a high Brick Block by using Koops. Mario can hammer the Candy Pop at the end of scene ten times to obtain Horsetails.
In the third scene, Goombella tells Mario that he can use her Tattle ability by pressing to obtain information about the area. The pair then reach a river, and the only way to get across is to access the Warp Pipe behind the two clumps of grass to reach the background of the scene, where Mario can jump on a blue ! Switch that creates a red and purple wooden bridge. In the far right of the background, he can find a Star Piece. After the bridge, the player can find a Mystery in the second grassy bush and a Fire Flower in a yellow ? Block. The pair make their way to the gate of Petalburg. After Mario and Goombella's stone key quest, they head back to the start when they are stopped by Koops. He successfully overcomes his timidness to tell Mario if he can go to Hooktail Castle to avenge his long-gone father for everyone, including his girlfriend. Koops then joins the party.

Trivia[edit]
- The background music used in Petal Meadows seems to include interludes of the bonus area theme as played in the Super Mario All-Stars version of Super Mario Bros.
- The background used outside of the Mario Bros.' House in Super Paper Mario would appear to have been modeled after that of Petal Meadows, retaining its dark, swirly areas featured on clouds and light blue lines through the sky.
