Flower 1 (9)

Enter the tall tower where lava will be steadily rising below. You must be quick to avoid dying.

Note that there are no Middle Rings (a type of checkpoint (an auto-save point you restart from on death)). The only way to obtain stars is to shoot down winged clouds and collect them.

Make your way back and forth, jumping to the upper ledges when possible.

After you pass the Stork Stop (a type of checkpoint), switch to Baby Peach.

Hop across the ledges to the left.

If you want, shoot the left winged cloud to get five stars.

Hit the checkered block and ride that platform upward.

Go right.

Ground pound (a jump attack) through the dirt and collect two red coins.

Go right and flutter (a special jump) to grab the first Flower.
