Vilet

Vilet is a plant in Plants vs. Zombies 2 who is obtained on Day 8 of Zombopolis. She, like the other Zombopolis plants, was revealed with the launch of the world, and had a "Behind the Seeds" video made shortly after, that details her strengths, weaknesses, and tips for proper use.
Once planted, Vilet must be tapped. Once tapped, the player must tap a tile in her lane for her to begin firing on. Once Vilet targets a tile, she will continuously fire 20 dps thorns onto the tile and cannot be re-targeted until there are 10 thorns occupying the tile. Once all 10 thorns are launched, she has a 2 second cool-down before firing again or being re-targeted, and will remain idle until another tile is manually targeted. The thorns will remain until a zombie steps on them, where they instantaneously disappear. 
== Origins ==
Vilet is based off of the flower of a similar name, the violet, also known as the Viola. Her name is a portmanteau of "Violet" and "Vile", meaning extremely unpleasant.
== Strategies ==
Vilet should be planted very early on, so her thorns can accumulate. One should also keep watch of Vilet and target empty or partially full tiles to replenish their thorns. It is best to have two Vilets per lane, to fill the tiles with spikes even quicker and more efficiently.
When dealing with Manhole Zombies, Vilet should be planted preemptively, and because she cannot launch thorns onto the Roadway, she should target the tile nearest to the Manhole Cover, and continue to fill in the tiles to the left of it. If a Manhole Zombie happens to slip through your defenses, quickly plant a Vilet past the imminent zombies and target tiles they are about to approach. This way, she can fill the next few tiles with thorns while staying out of danger.
Vilet's Plant Food Effect is incredibly helpful when during large waves, and when used with proper timing can be an effective way to damage and possibly eliminate tougher or more dangerous zombies within the horde. Another way to deal with large waves is to feed Vilet Plant Food and then place Spikeweeds or Spikerocks on her thorn-covered tiles, so the first few zombies will be damaged by the thorns, and those following them will be constantly damaged by the Spikeweeds or Spikerocks. To conclude, Vilet requires proper timing and attention to be used effectively, but when properly utilized, can significantly aid in defeating zombies.
== Trivia ==
* Because her thorns can be planted on, it is possible to protect a Vilet with her own thorns.
* She, Cob Cannon, Coconut Cannon, Banana Launcher, Missile Toe, and Holly Barrier are the only plants who require touch to attack.
