Citrus Chef

Citrus Chef is a Gemium Plant in Plants Vs. Zombies 2 available for 100 gems during the Food Fight event. 
== OVERVIEW ==
Citrus Chef will boost all attacking plants in a 3x3, doubling their attack speed. He will also occasionally throw some slop at Wall plants in his lane that are in front of him, healing them for 5% of their HP. However, if a Zombie steps in a 3x3 area around him or after 40 seconds, he will explode, leaving tile of lemon juice. It acts like a Spikeweed for Zombies, but also deals the same amount of damage to Plants and will not disappear. Flying plants don't care about it.
== ORIGINS ==
Citrus Chef is based on the Citrus limon (AKA Lemon). His name is a play on the citrus family of fruits (which lemons are a part of) and a Chef, which someone who cooks professionally. The vines are for the funny.

== BOOSTS ==
===== ENCHANT-MINT BOOST =====
He will boost other plant DPS by 4 times for the duration of the mint and heal wall plants by 7% of their HP instead of 5%.
===== PLANT FOOD =====
He will activate the Plant Food effect of all Plants in his area and heal all wall plants for 10% of their HP , but will take 2 Plant Foods. If you use it on a lemon juice tile, it will only take one and will be revived.
== STRATEGY ==
Citrus Chef can be a great addition to almost all set-ups. He can help with maximizing the value of expensive plants such as Winter Melons or Banana Launchers. He can also be good for boosting plants temporarily in the early-game while setting up additional defenses. However, he NEEDS good protection, because if a Zombie breaks through, that tile will become useless and may leave a hole in your defense where a plant would really help. Setting up Tall-Nuts or Primal-Wall-Nuts can be useful. Alternatively, just use Rotobaga and ignore the problem. While he can boost ground plants and melee plants, it probably won't help considering Zombies need to get close to them.
