Orano

Orano is a plant available in Plants vs. Zombies 2. She is introduced in the 9.9.1 update for the Orano's Soprano season. She chants high-pitched slowing musical notes and targets them at dangerous zombies similar to .
Orano chants musical notes down her own and adjacent lanes, this deals 30 dps at Level 1, which is weaker than a Repeater for the same cost. Her notes will hit a single zombie at once which slightly slows their walk speed to .75x of their normal speed, this effect lasts 7 seconds at Level 1. 
Orano prioritizes zombies that also prioritizes. However, she will target the strongest unaffected zombie in her range. She will ignore zombies that are affected by her slow down if there are unaffected zombies, she will then target the strongest zombie if all zombies in her range are slowed down. 
Her effect does not stack if she hits the same zombie repeatedly, and will still count down until the effect wears off. Which means she will eventually re-target to a zombie that has had their slow down effect wear off. 
If there is a zombie 2 tiles in front of her, she will holler a larger musical note that deals the same damage, but with the addition of splash damage. This musical note pushes back any zombie that gets hit by it 2 tiles back, and also stuns them for 2 seconds at Level 1. She will recharge for 3 seconds before attacking normally again.
==Origins==
Orano is based on the Citrus x sinesis or the Orange, a common fruit that is orange colored and typically sweet. it is also based on sopranos, which is the term for the highest singing voice.

===Plant Food effect===
When given Plant Food, Orano launches a powerful music tornado similar to Inferno's attack, which acts like a reverse . This pushes back zombies to the back of the lane, dealing 400 dps to all zombies at Level 1 in the lane and clumps them up at the rightmost side.
=== Contain-mint effect===
When boosted by Contain-mint, Orano's notes push back zombies by .5 tiles, and the slow down effect decreases speed to 0.25x. Her hollering attack has no recharge and pushes back zombies by 3 tiles instead.

==Strategies ==
Orano is amazing at stalling zombies while dealing little damage. Its multi-lane range makes it more useful in the middle lanes. However, it isn't particularly great at taking down zombies with its low damage and that it does not attack a single zombie at a time. It is quite good in the secondary frontline because of its hollering mechanic.
Orano has great synergy with fire-based attacks like and since the slow down effect does not get removed by fire.
==Trivia== 
*Orano is an italian term that means "not now".
