- This article is about a level in SM64 Shining stars Repainted. See Piranha Skygarden for the equivalent in the original hack.
Spring Skygarden is the second major level of SM64 Shining Stars Repainted. It appears to be an upgrade/overhaul to Piranha Skygarden from the original game.
To find the level, go to the opposite end of where you start the game. You should find a blue Pipe in an area "walled off" by a grass wall.
Stars[]
Star 1: A Dimensional Plant Problem[]
From the start, turn right, then left (passing a gift shop in the process), then right again twice. Now make your way across the square platforms (and brown mushroom) until you reach a pond where you will encounter another dimensional portal.
You don't have to worry about a pushing wall in this dimensional portal, as you are tasked with taking down the five giant Venus Firetraps from Tiny-Huge Island's first Star. They can all be found in soil on either end of the area that will cause Mario to sink slightly, hampering his jumps. Take down all five Piranhas to get the Star.
Star 2: The 5 Arches[]

Five arches are scattered throughout the level, each with a Silver Star inside.
Star 3: Top of the Abandoned Gift Shop[]
Off to the right of where the dimensional portal was, there's another garden with a red switch on a hill. Push the red switch to make a blue Used Block on top of the gift shop disappear, then use a Triple Jump to get on top of the roof of the gift shop and collect the Star that was inside the blue block.
Star 4: The Star Above the Sphere[]
Press the red switch again, then go to the structure where the dimensional portal is. You'll notice that some red Used Blocks have formed, allowing you to get on top of the structure. There are two Super Mario World 1-style Rotating Blocks on top of the structure; with good timing, you have to hit them, then jump on them just as they stop rotating and become solid again. This Star is on top of the second block.
Star 5: Inside the Abandoned Gift Shop[]

The Vanish Cap is required for this Star.

The Vanish Cap is on a square platform nearby where the dimensional portal is. By getting invisible with it, you'll find that you can now go through the "skull door" blocking the way to the gift shop. Inside the gift shop, go to the counter and step on the Super Mario Sunshine sand cube, then go inside the area it was blocking to trigger this Star to appear elsewhere in the shop.
Star 6: Beneath the Sand[]
Across from the Vanish Cap, there's another square platform with another sand block. Step on the sand block, then step on the Flipswitch to make this Star appear at a giant pool near the gift shop.
