Sanbo Flowers (lit. "Pokey Flowers") are a type of Egg Plant that spits out Pokeys, first appearing in Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island. If a Yoshi has six eggs, a Sanbo Flower cannot spit any Pokeys out. In Yoshi's Island DS, Sanbo Flowers can be viewed in the Island Museum, where there are four in the botanical enemy exhibit. They reappear in Yoshi's New Island, during Kamek's battle in Slime Drop Drama. Unlike in previous games, Sanbo Flowers spit out yellow Pokeys, which are even spat out when a Yoshi has six eggs.

  • Shogakukan guide: タマゴではなく、サンボを吐き出す。ヒップドロップをすると、大量のサンボが降ってくるので危険。[1] (It spits out Needlenoses, not eggs. Performing a Hip Drop is dangerous because a large amount of Needlenoses will rain down on you.)
  • Shogakukan guide (Game Boy Advance version): サンボをはき出す迷惑なフラワー。近くでヒップドロップすると、サンボが団体で登場。[2] (An annoying flower that sends Needlenoses sprawling out. Needlenoses appear in a group when a Hip Drop is placed nearby.)
