Spells are technically rays and rays are hindered by tree leaves in real lives (mobile phone frequencies, jammer, router connectivity,alpha, beta and gamma rays etc). So it's entirely possible for Umbrella Leaf to block the Wizard spells and Octopi (reason below).

Also, Balam, this is one thing I'll have to definitely disagree with you since you're terribly wrong on this one. Even in the game (not even counting real world logic), Octopi are solid matter. That is why when a plant attacks it it can be destroyed after a certain amount of shots. If it wasn't solid in the first place, then the shots would just go through. The only things not solid in this context are the Sheep as they cannot be hit and zombies pass through them (because of the reason I explained above). When they land yes, but in the air?

I agree with the goldman. They are not solid so wizard spells should not be deflect. The plant can only deflect lobbed projectile not straight projectile. So they can be counter for Octos and tomb raisers!
