It does depend on your opinion. I'm basing it off of survivalability, in which the plant can protect the player or itself through these factors: Strongest attack, defense, combination skills, usefulness?

Usefulness: Puff-shroom, it's good for sacrifical and 0 sun cost can't be beat. Only weakness is Jester Zombie. Plant food effect is one of the strongest the more you have. (Might tie with Thyme Warp)

Strength: Winter Melon, because of it's constant attack and freezing also helps it delay versus Cob Cannon's high cost, two plant food slots, and space and that can get eaten while recharging, especially if there was a surprise attack (ie it wouldn't work well if it were in PvZ2)

Defense: Infa-nut - even without it's Plant food ability, it regenerates even after being eaten. Costs cheaper than Tall-nut Sweet Potatoe - So strong she draws other enemies to her. High cost though

Combo: Cactus - hides from attacks but still does damage on ground zombies. Penetrating attack. Decent Sun cost ; 2nd place: Celery Stalker ; Honorable Mention: Scaredy Shroom
