​Role
The Plants have just recently lost their home to the Zombies, as their technologically advanced weaponry from the future has made them lose the Battle of Suburbia. The Plants have now begun an attacking role, trying to take over Zombie-ridden locations in modes like Graveyard Ops and Herbal Assault, however they are still trying to defend their remaining land from the Zombies in modes like Garden Ops and Gardens & Graveyards. Their goal is to defeat the Zombies and take back Zomburbia.

Playable plants
There are a total of seven Plant classes in the game, each with their own different and unique abilities. The seven Plants consist of the Peashooter, the assault class, the Chomper, the melee class, the Sunflower, the medic class, the Cactus, the sniper class, Citron, the new tank class, Rose, the new support class and Kernel Corn, the new soldier class.

Variant plants
Each playable character class has eight variants or more that give the base class a perk. The variants also differ slightly in appearance. Unlocking the variants is done through purchasing sticker packs from the Sticker Shop. Lower cost packs will result in single pieces being obtained randomly, more expensive ones will yield multiple pieces for different characters while the most expensive sticker pack will fully unlock a random new variant.

Spawnable Plants
The Plants can summon Spawnable Plants to aid them in battle. The Plants can grow Potted Plants to help them protect their gardens, and they can also summon the all-new Weeds which will roam the battlefield and attack Zombies.
