Rocket Flowers are collectibles that first appear in Super Mario Odyssey. Cappy can grab up to three of these flowers during a Cap Throw and return them to Mario. Once Mario has them, the flowers activate, sending Mario running forward automatically at high speed. At these speeds, Mario can run up steep inclines, and across the surface of water. They are very similar to the Turbo Nozzle from Super Mario Sunshine and the Dash Pepper in Super Mario Galaxy 2. As Mario runs, the Rocket Flowers' effect depletes. Each of the flowers vanish to represent the timer. In addition, all three will disappear at once if Mario bumps into any object, or does a ground pound. Mario can still use a Cap Throw while running, which both eases changing direction and allows Cappy to pick up more Rocket Flowers. Mario's maximum is three, but additional flowers still reset the timer. When a Rocket Flower disappears, it reappears at the spot it was taken from instantly.
They appear throughout the Wooded Kingdom after Mario defeats Spewart in Flower Thieves of Sky Garden. They also appear in the Seaside Kingdom, Moon Kingdom, Mushroom Kingdom, and in other kingdoms' bonus rooms.
At the end of the game, Mario tries to offer Princess Peach a Rocket Flower over Bowser's Piranha Plant Bouquet.
