Monkeyfruit

Kiwifruit (猕猴桃; pinyin: míhóutáo) is a monthly special plant in the Chinese version of Plants vs. Zombies 2. It attacks by throwing its staff at zombies, which stops when it hits one, and spins for a few seconds, damaging all zombies on that tile. When upgraded, its staff spins around for a longer amount of time.

Origins
This plant is based on the Actinidia chinensis. However, its appearance resembles more a monkey that wears a golden headband and attacks with a golden staff. This appearance and its costume are a reference to Sun Wukong, also known as the Monkey King.
