“Just bring thefruit here and put it in this basket, OK?”

—Fruit vendorPianta inDelfino Plaza,Super Mario Sunshine

Baskets appear inSuper Mario Sunshine as woven containers that occasionally hold items of interest.

InDelfino Plaza, there are four baskets with femalePiantas next to them: One is behind the building with the entrance toSirena Beach, one is to the right of theShine Gate, one is on a small island nearPinna Park, and one is to the left of the Shine Gate. Each of the Piantas asksMario to place three of a different kind offruit in her basket:Banana bunches,Pineapples,Coconuts, andDurians, respectively. All the baskets face upright save for the one for the Durians, which lies on its side since Mario cannot carry Durians as he can with the other three fruits. When Mario puts a fruit inside a basket, the basket grows larger for a moment before the fruit vanishes; if he gets three of the requested fruit inside the basket, Mario can talk to the Pianta to receive aBlue Coin the first time and a1-Up Mushroom on subsequent times.

In Pinna Park, there are six baskets facing upside down on the beach, each of which contains a Blue Coin. Mario must lure aBullet Bill into the baskets to destroy them and collect the Blue Coins; this can be done only during "The Beach Cannon's Secret," due to the Bullet Bills and theMonty Mole firing them appearing only in that mission.
