Snowdrop (JDFRG1)

Snowdrop is an ice plant appearing in Plants vs. Zombies 2. She is a premium Feasitivus plant and can be unlocked by collecting 150 seed packets during Feastivus.
Snowdrop attacks by shooting a snow droplet every 3-3.25 seconds, which deal 15 damage. The droplets freeze zombies more and more. 
Like all ice plants, Snowdrop will extinguish Explorer Zombies, Torchlight Zombies and Prospector Zombies. Zombies that are immune to freezing, for example the Frostbite Caves zombies will simply always be chilled. Snowdrop is also immune to the chilling winds of Frostbite Caves.
==About==
The freezing has 6 stages: the first will be the simple chilling effect, that plants like snow pea do. The second to fifth stages are different forms of freezing zombies into ice blocks like Ice Bloom's, with each stage increasing the health of the ice by 50 DPS, to a total of 200 DPS (both refering to level 1). 
The Ice Blocks act a bit differently from ice blocks of Ice Bloom, altough they use the same sprites:
*The zombies are not killed when encased in an ice block
*Even larger zombies like gargantuars can be frozen
* Zombies inside the ice can break out by eating the block, but it takes them 4x more time
*Plants can still iteract with the zombie inside the ice, but instead of dissapearing will pierce, but lose 25% of their damage doing so.
*Fire plants will also deal damage to the ice
==Almanac Entry==
Note: The stats shown below only apply to Level 1.
==Origins==
 Snowdrop is based on Galanthus, also known as a snowdrop.
==Upgrades==
===Plant Food Effect===
When Fed Plant food, snowdrop will lob 3 large snow drops (applies to level 1), that will freeze a zombie directly to the third stage, and chill every other zombie in a 3x3 area.
===Winter-mint effect ===
When boosted by the winter mint, Snow drop will deal an additional 50 DPS and will skip one stage of freezing with every shot.

==Strategies ==
Snowdrop doesn't go well with fire plants, as they will unfreeze the zombies. Also since the plant doesn't do much damage, it is more effective, if used as a support plant. Due to the long shooting time, it can sometimes be useless against large hordes of zombies, as the chilled zombie will stay behind other zombies. Also many zombies can eat the ice block from around a zombie very fastly. This can be combated by planting many snowdrops in the same lane.
Snowdrop is also useful against more powerful zombies, because unlike Ice Bloom, she can even freeze zombies with a lot of health. It isn't a long term protector though as more powerful zombies like gargantuars can still break the ice they are trapped in one shot, although it takes 4x longer to attack.
