Sweet Potato

Sweet Potato is a premium plant that was released in the 3.0.1 update of Plants vs. Zombies 2: It's About Time. It attracts zombies from other lanes to its lane when zombies are nearing a three-by-three area around it. Like Ghost Pepper and Homing Thistle, it costs 109 gems to buy this plant.

Almanac entry
TOUGHNESS: High

RECHARGE: Sluggish

Sweet Potatoes attract zombies from other lanes when they are close by.

Sweet Potato really is as sweet as she looks. Her favorite animal is the unicorn. Her favorite color is (and this is a direct quote) "all the colors in the rainbow." When she writes the letter "i", she draws a little heart where the dot belongs. Frankly, if it were anyone else, this amount of syrup would be sickening. But on her, well, it just seems right.

Strategy
Sweet Potato gives the player ample time to set up their defenses, as it can attract zombies into a well-guarded lane. Arming your armed lanes with Homing Thistles may also be a good idea until the player's sun budget permits them to purchase a Sweet Potato.
