Fume-shroom

Fume-shroom is the first offensive plant with an Area-of-Effect attack, as the fumes damage everything within its four-square range, as for example if there were three zombies in the lane and within range, it would hit them all. They have the same rate of fire as a Peashooter and do one normal damage per fume burst, harming all zombies within 4 squares on a lane. It can be upgraded to the Gloom-shroom, once its seed packet is purchased from Crazy Dave's Shop, for $7,500. It is obtained after level 2-2. The reason why it shoots through ladders or screen doors because it shoots heavily that's why it is angry faced.

Strategy
Being able to damage multiple zombies at a time gives the Fume-shroom a big advantage over Peashooters. Try putting two or three in a row behind a Wall-nut or Tall-nut to maximize the damage while still protecting them. They are very important on any level with Screen Door Zombies, or Ladder Zombies, unless you have another way to bypass their shields, such as grabbing them with a Magnet-shroom, or damaging them directly with a catapult plant, Spikeweed, Spikerock, or non-forward projectile. They are also good against Dancing Zombies, because they are able to damage the lead dancer, as well as the shielding Backup Dancers. Another good strategy requires the purchase of the Gloom-shroom. By putting the Gloom-shroom, right in front of the Fume-shroom, the Fume-shroom can actually fire into the upgrade plant and fire more fume in all eight directions.
