- —Bub-ulb, Paper Mario
Bub-ulbs are plant-like creatures found in Paper Mario and Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door.
In Paper Mario, Bub-ulbs give Mario Magical Seeds to plant them in Minh T.'s garden, revealing the way to Flower Fields. There are a total of four Bub-ulbs scattered around the world, which are found in Toad Town, Mt. Rugged, Forever Forest, and Lavalava Island's Jade Jungle. These Bub-ulbs, though, are buried underground, and all Mario and his party can see is a flower. Once Mario gets to Flower Fields, he meets several Bub-ulbs, all of which are in the main plaza of Flower Fields, where Wise Wisterwood resides. Bub-ulbs have different flower colors, from yellow to blue and from green to pink. When Mario first arrives, these Bub-ulbs are panicking due to the lack of sunshine in Flower Fields. When Mario restores Flower Fields back to its warm weather, Bub-ulbs personally thank Mario and even sing out of joy.
In Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door, two Bub-ulbs reside in Petalburg. One of them, Bub-ulber, gives Mario a Dried Bouquet in exchange for a Hot Dog from the Glitz Pit, after Mario completes his trouble.
Although no Bub-ulbs appear in Super Paper Mario, Francis owns merchandise that is based on them.
Bub-ulbs have a name structure similar to Bob-ombs.

- "It's a flower. I guess that's pretty obvious... It doesn't seem to move like an ordinary flower, though."
- "Oh! A Bub-ulb. Talking flowers seem weird... Didn't I hear that Bub-ulbs live in Flower Fields?"
- "He's one of the Bub-ulbs. Bub-ulbs are a type of talking plant. Aren't they hilarious? I think they come from Flower Fields."
- "A flower, I think. But... Do most flowers move like that?"
- "Oh! A Bub-ulb. I don't know why, but they give out Seeds. Boy, if there are lots of these guys in Flower Fields, it must be a hopping place!"
- "It's a flower. I think... It doesn't seem to move like an ordinary flower, though."
- "Oh! It's a Bub-ulb. The flower we saw must be the top of his head. He hands out Seeds. I'm willing to bet that these Seeds are really important. Let's plant 'em, Mario."
- "It's a flower. I guess that's pretty obvious... It doesn't seem to move like an ordinary flower, though."
- "Oh! A Bub-ulb. I don't know why it's growing here. It's a very strange flower, don't you think? This Seed... I bet it's something very important. Important to Bub-ulbs, anyway."
- "It's a Bub-ulb. It's one of many talking flowers in Flower Fields. Boy, it seems like as soon as creatures learn to communicate, they learn to gossip."
- "You know, a lot of the flowers in Flower Fields will answer you if you talk to 'em. They're probably our best source of news around here."
- "A lot of flowers live here, huh? They're so...so very... uh...beautiful, I guess."
- "It's a Bub-ulb. The flowers around here hate cloudy weather. They need the sun's rays! I don't like the rain, either, because I can't play outside."

- "That's Bub-ulber. Doesn't it kinda weird you out to see a talking flower? I mean, where's his head? Is it the flower part? ...Or the bulb part?"
- "That's a Bub-ulb, a talking flower. I think he lives in Petalburg. I know he's a plant, but he makes more sense than these other crazy Petalburgers!"
