Drill-shroom

Drill-shroom is a plant in Plants vs. Zombies; the Long Walk Home that can be unlocked by completing level 4 of Stable Bridges. It shoots five nails that deal 30 damage each, within a 90 degree radius. Even though it has a 90 degree radius, it only begins firing when a zombie appears on its lane, which means not all of its projectiles will hit.
Because the game it comes in lacks plant food, it doesn't have a plant food ability. Though, in the game's files, there was a scrapped plan for Drill-shroom to have a plant food ability before plant food was completely scrapped from the game. Using it in-game causes Drill-shroom to softlock and it will do nothing for the rest of the level. Because of the way plant food works, it can't be eaten or dug out.
==Origins==
Drill-shroom is based on, as its name implies, a drill. Though, the way the plant functions, it is more closely related to a nail gun. The original picture of Drill-shroom is attached in the Gallery section.

==Strategies==
Drill-shroom is a fairly cheap plant, only costing 175 sun. It is recommended to bring stronger sun producers when using this plant in order to get a lot of them down, because they are far better in numbers. Each nail shot by Drill-shroom does slightly above-average damage, allowing it to easily vanquish weaker zombies up close since it shoots five nails (that doesn't immediately mean all five nails will hit the desired target). It is also better to use this plant closer to the front of the lawn rather than the back, because some of its projectiles will go off-screen and not hit anything at all.
If levels call for the player to attack in lanes where you can't plant anything, it isn't recommended to use Drill-shroom as it won't target those lanes directly. It will need a zombie on its lane before attacking.
