In Pikmin: Shipwrecked Stargazers
Sprawlvines are tall plants in Pikmin: Shipwrecked Stargazers. It is initially found as round, maroon with cream colored markings on the top. The bean can be found isolated on the ground, or inside certain enemies. The Pikmin will carry this seed to a spot on the ground, usually near a cliff, that is marked with a crossed line marking. Pikmin can dig at this spot to make a hole, and the other Pikmin will place the bean into it. A pile of soil is made from the Pikmin digging, they can be ordered to place the soil back over the hole, patting it down to secure the bean.

Over the next seven days, the bean will grow a vine that extends progressively and supports itself on the cliff it is next to. After seven days, it will be fully grown, with numerous branching leaves, seed pods and warts, ending in a curl. Walking into the vine as Olimar or Louie will cause them to grab ahold of the vine and climb it, with the rest of the party following suit. The player can climb both upwards and downwards, and going to the top of the vine will cause the squad to jump off onto the elevated ground. The Sprawlvine will form around the cliff it grows on and can never be destroyed. Exposure to water, such as from rain, will speed up the growth of the plant by two days.
