Plants (Plants vs. Zombies)

Plants are the titular deuteragonists of the Plants vs. Zombies indie game franchise.
The purpose of the plants is when collected enough sun, they can be planted to support the players to defend their homes from the brain-eating zombies. They are mutants monstrous that can damage them, simply sit back and act as a support, or can only used once. Players must strategize with them to build a perfect defense to protect themselves from the zombie horde.
