Honeybloom Galaxy
- “We came here in search of a Power Star for our queen!”
- —Honeybee, Super Mario Galaxy 2
The Honeybloom Galaxy is a galaxy in Super Mario Galaxy 2 that can be unlocked after feeding the Hungry Luma 700 Star Bits. This galaxy introduces the Bee Mushroom, which can turn Mario into Bee Mario, allowing him to fly for a short period of time. Most of level takes place on one large cube-shaped planet with a side-scrolling view. The stage is filled with several obstacles, including Bee Eaters which Bee Mario has to dodge. There are also small plants that will grant Mario one Star Bit when touched. Mario enters this galaxy sliding along a long vine with the small plants, collecting more Star Bits on the way. Because the level is filled with tight spots and high areas, Mario will have to try to stay as Bee Mario for most of the level.
This galaxy, with the Honeyhop Galaxy, plays a jazzy remixed tune of the Honeyhive Galaxy / Gold Leaf Galaxy theme.

Flower Highland Planet A
Flower Highland Planet A[1] is the first section of the planet. There are various walls that the player needs to wall jump across. There is a secret Power Star at the top of this area in which the player needs to use the swing then wall jump to reach the top. The only enemies here are Goombas. There is a Bee Mushroom at the end of this area which the player will need to get through the next area.
Flower Highland Planet B
The Flower Highland Planet B[1] is the second section of this planet. The player will need to go across various clouds and flower platforms as Bee Mario. There are a few Choppahs near the end of the area. A Comet Medal is found in a small gap next to a Choppah that the player must avoid. A Sproutle Vine will take the player to the next area.
Flower Highland Planet C
Flower Higland Planet C[1] is the third section of this planet. This area contains many grape balls the player is needed to bounce across. The only enemies here are Choppahs and some Fuzzies. The player will need to climb the poles and use a couple of swings to reach the last area.

Trivia
- The Honeybloom and Fleet Glide Galaxies are the only Hungry Luma galaxies in Super Mario Galaxy 2 that have no Prankster Comet, except the Green Comet. However, while the Honeybloom has the distinction of being the only Hungry Luma galaxy with a secret star, the Fleet Glide's would-be secret star is replaced with a Jibberjay invitation.
