This can be done by crouching, then shaking the [[Wii#Wii Remote|Wii Remote]] or pushing the {{button|3ds|X}}/{{button|3ds|Y}} button on the [[Nintendo 3DS]]. [[Diddy Kong]] can also perform this move, but only when he is controlled independently in multiplayer. The [[Kong]]s can blow small air currents for as long as the actions above are executed.

*'''{{Conjectural|Fountain Flower}}''' — A flower with four red petals and a small bud at the top. When Donkey Kong blows on the petals, they spin swiftly as water leaks out of the bud. Eventually, the flower flies off and water flows out like a fountain, giving nourishment to a vine, which grows from the water. The vine's buds then bloom into flowers with items in them as the Fountain Flower continues spewing water. They are only found in [[Flutter Flyaway]]. | *'''{{Conjectural|Fountain Flower}}''' — A flower with four red petals and a small bud at the top.
