Kalle Demos
Boss: Kalle Demos
This oversized plant has one weakness: the thin dark blue arms on top. Target five of the arms with your Boomerang, throw it and quickly run out of the way of the attacking vines. Once you're in a safe spot again, cut more of the plants' arms until they're all gone. The plant will open and reveal the inner core. Target it with your Boomerang and throw it quickly a few times. If you've got plenty of health (and you're good at replenishing it from the grass), run in close and slash the core plant with your sword instead. Note that if you stay long, you will be swallowed and take damage -- but it's a much faster way of taking out the boss. The flower will close after its taken a few hits and you have to start your attack run over. If you need health, cut some of the grass that grows along the lair's outer wall.

Video Walkthrough: Forbidden Woods Boss
Defeat the flower and rescue Makar.
Before you leave, you should go and retrieve any treasure chests that you may have missed. For example, go to the tall room in the very south of the dungeon (you can use a warp to go back to the entrance hall, then go north). Cross the room and from the north platform, look to the right to locate another platform with a flower on it. Jump into the bud and hover over there, then turn around and float over to the northeast platform.
Smash the pot to get a Joy Pendant, defeat the plant, then use the flower bud to float across to the southwest balcony. Use your Boomerang on the vine and open the treasure chest to get a Treasure Chart.
This same room is also home to the Forbidden Tingle Statue. You can only retrieve it if you have a GBA hooked up. Simply move Tingle's target on top of the question mark icon on the GBA and use a Bomb?in that spot. A treasure chest will appear that Link can open in the GameCube game to get the statue.
If you've already done this (or you're planning to come back later), now is the time to grab the Heart Container, then step inside the whirlwind to warp back to the Deku Tree.
You will receive Farore's Pearl.
