Lava Lotus

From the Super Mario Wiki

A Lava Lotus.

A Lava Lotus is a plant in Super Mario Bros. 3 that lives underwater. They collect Fireballs under their transparent leaves and then open up to release them. The fireballs can go through platforms and make navigating underwater difficult. The number they shoot out is random and can be up to four at a time.

Lava Lotuses were given a land counterpart, the Volcano Lotus, in Super Mario World, which did not feature Lava Lotuses in turn. These Volcano Lotuses have also made an appearance in Super Princess Peach, leaving Lava Lotuses with only one game appearance.

[edit] Appearances in Other Media

The Lava Lotus that was seen in The Adventures of Super Mario Bros. 3.

A single Lava Lotus appeared briefly in The Adventures of Super Mario Bros. 3 episode "Oh, Brother!". This Lava Lotus unleashed its fireballs on Frog Luigi, who managed to swim past them with ease, mainly due to the Frog Suit that Princess Toadstool had advised him to wear.
