| The '''Piantas''' are a sentient [[species]] of people found on [[Isle Delfino]] in ''[[Super Mario Sunshine]]''. They somewhat resemble [[humans]]; however, Piantas are much larger and can have pink, green, brown, purple, red, orange, yellow, or blue skin. Piantas also have small palm trees growing out of the top of their heads, indicating that they may have come from tropical plants. Typically, Piantas wear grass skirts or grass dresses. Piantas are generally laid back, quite strong, and friendly. However, they also have a fairly big temper. Besides ''Super Mario Sunshine'', Piantas have appeared as a recurring species in many spin-off games and also appeared in ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]''.

| [[File:Super mario galaxy two pic 07.jpg|thumb|left|225px|Different species of Piantas.]]
| |
| In ''[[Super Mario Sunshine]]'', Piantas share their island home with the [[Noki|Nokis]]. While the Nokis mostly live in [[Noki Bay]], the Piantas mainly reside in [[Pianta Village]]. However, while Pianta Village is their primary home, Piantas live all over the island. Many Piantas make a living by producing and selling fruits in small markets on [[Delfino Plaza]]. Piantas love fruit, so there will always be a substantial demand for fruit in the island's economy.
| |
| | |
| Piantas are also a very strong species as they can toss [[Mario]] with ease. One Pianta tells Mario that these Piantas are called '''Chucksters''', as well as some of the Chucksters themselves. Mario can sometimes use this to his advantage by having a Pianta toss him to high ledges and cliffs.

| Piantas appear in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]'' in one galaxy, the [[Starshine Beach Galaxy]], which is based, at least in part, on different areas from Isle Delfino. Their roles are quite minor, but they can hurl Mario to various spots. These Piantas, however, will hurl Mario to another area without him needing to engage them in conversation first.

| ==Trivia==
| |
| *In Italian, Pianta directly translates to plant.
| |
| *Piantas are the only friendly species in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]'' to not have a representative on [[Starship Mario]].
| |
| *Only male Piantas are playable in the ''Mario Baseball'' series.
| |
| *A cyan Pianta near the fish market in episode seven of [[Ricco Harbor]] (''Super Mario Sunshine'') uses one of the voice clips reserved for Nokis. An orange Pianta next to the Pianta-shaped tree in [[Pinna Park]] does the same. This appears to be an oversight of the developers.
