In [[Pikmin 2]], figwort blossoms have adopted a deep pinkish hue which is thought to be the result of differing soil conditions; in fact, the color of some real-world flowering plants, [[Wikipedia:Hydrangea macrophylla|bigleaf hydrangeas]] in particular, can vary from blue to pink/purple, depending on the [[Wikipedia:Acid|acidity]] or [[Wikipedia:Base (chemistry)|alkalinity]] of the soil in which they grow.

This plant offers an excellent example of a non-native species introduced into the ecosystem by some unknown method.

Additional readings suggest no significant atmospheric or solar radiation changes have occured in the ecosystem, leaving open the possibility that soil composition and mineral deposits may have affected petal coloration.

In the first game, disturbing certain flower clusters will unleash a swarm of tiny black bugs sometimes referred to by fans simply as "Figwort insects." They fly around briefly and quickly retreat, but cannot be harmed by [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] and do not affect gameplay whatsoever. These bugs have been known to congregate around [[Clover]]s as well, but are usually found within Figworts. No information about them is provided in the game. The plants they inhabit also show no signs of disease, so the relationship between the insects and plants is likely mutualism.

Figworts are tall, flowering plants used as scenery in the three main Pikmin games. In Pikmin 1, figwort plants sport bright blue flowers. In Pikmin 2, figwort blossoms have a deep pinkish hue. Although Pikmin 2 does not have the tiny black bugs from the first game, figworts may conceal larger creatures such as Doodlebugs or Unmarked Spectralids. In certain areas and caves, dead or dormant figworts can be seen, possessing pale or red-orange leaves and without flowers. In Pikmin 3, only the blue figwort plant appears.

Insects

In Pikmin 1, touching certain figwort clusters will cause a swarm of tiny black bugs to emerge from them. They briefly fly around and then quickly retreat, and cannot be specifically interacted with whatsoever. These bugs also appear around some clovers, and even in isolated spots.
