Steel-pea

<tabber>
Common=
Steel-pea is the first plant obtained in Fearsome Factory in Plants vs. Zombies: The Wacky House. She shoots heavy, slow-moving metal peas at zombies that deal 80 damage. She has the same firing speed as most peashooters. She is resistant to all motion, such as Fearsome Factory's conveyor-belts. Her projectiles are also heavy enough to not be deflected by Pipe Zombie.
== Origins ==
Like most other peashooting plants, the Steel-pea is based on the plant Pisum sativum. She is based on the metal steel, which is where her heavy damage and resistance to be moved comes from.
Her rare counterpart is based on the element copper.

== Rare counterpart ==
Rare Steel-pea retains her heavy damage from her common ancestor. However, she now has an even slower projectile speed, and her resistance to motion is gone after 20 seconds. Her health has been raised from 300 to 1800 and her range decreased to 3 tiles.
She has a different body from most other peashooters, and she is made of copper. She initially has some small turquoise spots, before completely turning turquoise after 20 seconds.
== Strategies ==
Steel-pea works as a good heavy-hitter later in levels. She deals four s worth of damage. Although this is equal to 400 sun, less than Steel-pea's 425, Steel-pea has the advantage of only taking up one tile as opposed to four. can be used to make her deal even more damage, with slight splash damage as well. Her resistance to motion is very useful in Fearsome Factory, where conveyor-belts are shifting around your defense. Steel-pea's heavy projectiles also make her a very practical counter for Pipe Zombie.
