Zen Garden (World Tour)

Zen Garden is a game mode in Plants vs. Zombies: World Tour, where the player keeps plants that they have collected in a virtual garden, usually obtained by killing zombies, or getting them from certain prizes, buying them from the store or mystery gift boxes. They are the same plants as what the player has in the game. It is an alternative, non-competitive environment obtained by completing Canada - Day 6. 
All Zen Garden plants have to be watered and fertilized to grow and either be bug sprayed or played music to make them drop extra coins periodically, but nothing negative will happen if the player ignores their needs. The player can also talk to the Tree of Wisdom in the game mode and get useful information about the game, and they can also share their gardens on ShroomstaGram.
==Overview==
===Basic information of growing plants===
The objective of the mode is to acquire plants, either by random drops in any of the other game modes, or by acquiring them from . Once they are obtained, the player must care for them by watering them and meeting their other needs until they are fully grown. Once they are at full size, the player must water them every day and make them happy after which they will begin dropping coins every 30–60 seconds or so for up to a full calendar day. At midnight, they will require water and bug spray or music again, and the cycle continues.
 and are also available in this game mode, each one can be bought for $7,000 at Penny's Space-Time Emporium. The former collects coins for the player, while the latter doubles the amount of money that an area of plants produce. Stinky is slow, and will sleep after collecting coins for five minutes, but the player can fasten him and boost his time of collecting money by feeding him chocolate. He sleeps after three hours of collecting coins if fed chocolate, and can collect coins while players have turned to other game modes. Bernie, on the other hand, comes out twice a day, and feeds plants in a 2x2 area pollen that speeds up their growth time by a varying amount. The player cannot summon him out again after he feeds plants nectar until he comes out by himself. If a plant has been fully grown, having Bernie pollinate them causes them to drop a seedling which will always guarantee to sprout into any plant from that family tree.
When first unlocking the Zen Garden, Stinky the Snail is already present and will start collecting coins from the Marigolds immediately, but most items including the Bug Spray and Bernie need to be purchased from the store.
The player only have a Regular Garden that has 16 tiles to hold plants when they first unlock Zen Garden. However, they can change that by either expanding the garden by purchasing 4 more tiles for $5000, to at most 64 tiles, or purchasing a new garden theme from Penny's Space-Time Emporium. They are purely cosmetic, and does not affect plants in any way. Here are a list of all the available themes:
*Regular Garden
*Forest Garden

*Snowy Garden
*Oriental Garden
*Mountain Garden

*Desert Garden
===Talking to the Tree of Wisdom===
The Tree of Wisdom is a purchasable feature in Penny's Space-Time Emporium, and it can be bought for $10,000. Like in , when fed , it gives the player helpful tips, as it is different from the classic help menus. The player can grow it indefinitely, continuing to receive advice on how best to tackle levels and zombies, and even gifts the player rewards upon growing to different foot milestones such as 100 feet, 500 feet and 1000 feet tall.
