Ash

The Ash is a plant in Plants vs. Zombies: The Final Showdown which can send out powerful clouds of ash that choke zombies, despite the zombies not requiring air. Because reasons. This deals 100 damage per shot a second for two seconds while stunning the zombie, and has a 5% chance of insta-killing the target by dealing 900 damage per shot each second.
It is unlocked after beating the Eruption side path in Dark Volcano.

==Plant Food==
Damages all zombies onscreen with a massive ash cloud for five seconds, stunning them all and dealing a total of 500DPS over that time. Each zombie has a 5% chance of receiving insta-kill damage, though in this case it's 360DPS per second, totalling 1800DPS.
==Strategies==
It can deal heavy damage and stall the zombies, but is very expensive, and lacks AoE, so try to back it up with some cheaper AoE plants or additional stalling plants like Snow Peas. It also shoots slowly, which leaves it especially vulnerable if used against fast zombies, however it is very effective against stronger zombies such as Gargantuars, as it can stun the zombie for nearly half of the time and deal quite large amounts of damage. Insta-kill damage is useful against Gargs too, even though the Gargantuar can survive it.
All-in-all, it's kind of like Citron, but with less firepower and a stalling effect, and it shoots more often but still slowly. Use it in a similar way to Citron and you should maximize its effectiveness.
