Flowers as places to meet, mate, eat and sleep: not necessarily in that order!

Sparaxis elegans
There are many spectacular bulbs in the Iris Family that come from South Africa, including quite a few in the genus Sparaxis. This one is Sparaxis elegans, with its vivid orange and purple flowers. It comes from near Nieuwoudtville, to the north of Cape Town in South Africa's winter-rainfall region.

Hero Form Appearance: A hybrid of a ringmaster's costume and YuYuYu’s Hero Form Outfits. The undersuit of the outfit is a creamy white, acting as a contrast for the bright azure hues of the main outfit. And while the main outfit starts out as a dark blue hue, it becomes more of a cobalt color starting at the lower half of the sleeves, the lower half of the pants, and the tailcoat. Accent colors are cyan, white, black, gray, silver, gold, and green. The shoes, gloves, and belt all have patterns of irises on them, and the only other accessory is a brooch he wears on his left breast that looks just like the flower. The flower’s petal shape can be seen in the tailcoat and collar.
Full Bloom Gauge Location: Right Thigh

Bio: he cleverest of the Koopalings, easily recognized by his big tufts of hair. He's got a mature air about him, but he likes to show off and can sound a bit pompous. In New Super Mario Bros. Wii, he's the boss of World 7 and torments Mario by firing homing magic blasts and floating too high in the air to be jumped on.
