Seed (Super Mario Odyssey)

Seeds are items that appear in Super Mario Odyssey. They are small, yellow acorn-like objects and can be found in some locations of the kingdoms. Mario must bring the seed to a small plant pot and then wait for it to grow into a golden bud. Mario can touch the bud and it will sprout into a Power Moon. In the Seaside Kingdom, Mario can use a Gushen to water it, quickening the growing process. Once Mario has collected the Power Moon that has sprouted from the seed, Mario doesn't have to plant it and wait for it to sprout again.

In the Wooded Kingdom, a similar plant appears in the Deep Woods, appearing in a stream surrounded by blackened noncollectable coins stuck in the riverbed. Mario must use a Coin Coffer to shoot coins at it. As he does so, it grows taller and taller. After a few hundred coins, the bud finally appears and can be opened.

There also exists a bigger variation of seeds, which Mario can take to an enclosed patch of dirt and throw them into it. The seed will grow into a massive Beanstalk, which will take Mario to a higher platform, out of the Deep Woods, or to a bonus area in the sky. In the Wooded Kingdom, these seeds are dispensed by blue Steam Gardeners.
