Cherry Bomb

The Cherry Bomb is the first exploding plant that you receive.

The Cherry Bomb is based on any number of species from the Cerasus subgenus.

Usage
The Cherry Bomb explodes almost instantly after placing it. It is a one-time use plant, but can be planted as often as the seed packet recharges.

On detonation, it destroys zombies within one square from its location (diagonally as well as horizontally and vertically). Like other exploding plants, it can destroy any enemy except for the Gargantuar in one detonation.

Strategy
The Cherry Bomb is typically used either in one of two situations: as a last-ditch defensive effort when a zombie (or group of zombies) is going to devour a plant you want to keep, or when you need to dispatch of a large zombie cluster instantly.
