Dark Flower

Dark Flower is an alternate ability of the Heal Flower. Instead of healing plants, it shoots harmful lasers at the zombies. It looks like a Heal Flower with dark red petals. These lasers are fired at the rate of a Pea Cannon. It fires a burst of six shots and deals 4 to 5 damage every hit, with a cooldown of 0,6 seconds between each burst. Its attack is Dark Energy, takes 45 seconds to recharge.

Description
''The Dark Flower is a nasty little plant. It shoots hurtful red lasers at the Zombies, but doesn't heal, because it's an evil little flower.''

Health
A Dark Flower has less than or equal to 350 health.

With
Try to place these flowers while running around corners to surprise your enemies or stop zombies, possibly forcing them to attack it or possibly even dying in the process of chasing you. The Dark Flower is handy when stuck in a 1v2 situation as it can be a helpful damaging partner. Place it down and then launch the heal beam to heal it. When running or losing, try to disable the heal beam to throw in regeneration. The Dark Flower is not recommended to be placed in Gardens and Graveyards as it can be knocked out easily by Long Bombs, Imp Punts, ZPG's or Multi Rocket, however, it can serve as a limited time, free-of-charge spawnable plant.

Countering
A Zombie Stink Cloud or a Super Stink Cloud can damage the Dark Flower and blind it at the same time. Due to the Dark Flower's restricted range, you can back off and shoot the sunflower in the process possibly killing it.
