The Great Sunflower and a Sunflower Kid.
- “Hello! Doesn't the sunshine feel lovely?”
- —Great Sunflower, Super Mario Sunshine
The Great Sunflower is a giant sunflower located outside Pinna Park on the beach of Pinna Island only in Super Mario Sunshine. The Great Sunflower watches over the Sunflower Kids, but unlike them, the Great Sunflower is much larger and is brown in the middle instead of yellow. It also speaks differently when talked to or sprayed with water.
In Episode 4 of Pinna Park, Snooze-A-Koopas started chewing up the park's resident sunflowers' roots. Mario then had to defeat the Snooze-A-Koopas to rescue them from being wilted. The Great Sunflower rewarded him with a Shine Sprite after his task was finally done.
Trivia
- In the Prima strategy guide for Super Mario Sunshine, the Great Sunflower is located in the boss section, even though it is an ally.
- It ressembles the Sunflower model for Plants Vs. Zombies and Plants Vs. Zombies: Garden warfare, while the kids ressemble the Plants Vs. Zombies 2: It's about time model.
