Fear not! Get in there!
The first place Baba Buds can be found is insideForest Haven, where theGreat Deku tree will ask Link to climb the area by use of the Baba Buds. Once he reaches the summit, Link will be granted with aDeku Leaf. Baba Buds can also be used to refill Link'sMagic Meter.
Although these buds can be found unoccupied usually, a Boko Baba will occasionally be guarding it. It should be noted that the actual bud and a bud occupied by a Boko Baba are slightly different colors. Often, by defeating the Baba, it will transform into a Baba Bud, although this is not always the case.
Function
If Link hops into a bud, it will restore a slight amount of hismagic power and launch him high into the air, giving him the ability to reach high places. By using the Deku Leaf, Link can utilize these powerful jumps to glide onto previously out-of-reach surfaces.
Trivia
- Baba Buds have a similar function to theDeku Flowers fromMajora's Mask. Unlike those flowers, buds can be used by anyone, not justDeku Scrubs.
- InOracle of Seasons,Blast Blooms that were rock hard during the other seasons bloom in spring and can be used in a similar manner. A kid is seen playing with it during spring inHoron Village.
