Plants vs. Zombies night, pool, fog and roof plant choices
Change the seed selection when the board changes.
Edition covered
Original Plants vs. Zombies as sold in Game of the Year Edition. Covers Adventure and the original side modes; PvZ 2, Garden Warfare and Replanted additions are excluded.
Replace falling sun at night
Night stages do not provide the daytime falling-sun supply. Sun-shrooms or Sunflowers keep the economy working, while free Puff-shrooms provide early cover as more expensive mushrooms become available.
| Environment | Main change | Useful preparation |
|---|---|---|
| Day lawn | Falling sun and straight lanes | Sunflowers and lane damage |
| Night lawn | No falling daytime sun; gravestones | Mushroom economy and Grave Buster where needed |
| Pool | Two water lanes | Lily Pads or aquatic plants |
| Fog pool | Reduced visibility | Fog control and complete lane coverage |
| Roof | Slope and planting pots | Lobbed attackers and Flower Pots |
Build a water plan for the pool
Ordinary land plants need Lily Pads in pool lanes, while dedicated aquatic plants work there directly. Keep pool defenses ready before water-lane zombies arrive; a strong lawn on dry rows does not protect the water.
| Plant | Use | Limitation |
|---|---|---|
| Sun-shroom | Night sun production | Starts with smaller sun before growing |
| Lily Pad | Supports plants on water | Uses a square and additional sun |
| Plantern | Reveals nearby fog | Needs protection in its forward position |
| Blover | Clears fog temporarily and removes balloons | Single-use timing matters |
| Flower Pot | Provides roof planting space | Does not attack by itself |
Manage fog with placement and information
Fog hides part of the board rather than removing the lanes beneath it. Plantern can reveal an area and Blover can clear fog temporarily; also check whether the preview contains Balloon Zombies that need an anti-air answer.
Use lobbed attacks on the roof
The roof slope obstructs ordinary straight shots from many positions. Cabbage-pults and other lobbers work around the slope, while Flower Pots create planting spaces on roof tiles that need them.
