Strategies
The Bloomerang is an easy-to-use and a versatile plant as it can reliably take care of multiple zombies at once. In regular levels, two columns along with a column of Bonk Choys or Snapdragons and a column of Wall-nuts or Tall-nuts can take care of the zombies almost perfectly. However, one has to be careful that it can only take care of three zombies at once and is NOT a substitute for a Fume-shroom. Therefore, it is not a reliable weapon against overly massive amounts of zombies. Its attacking power is also quite low despite hitting twice, as its firing speed is half that of a Peashooter's, and cannot kill a Conehead Zombie by itself, and its plant food upgrade has less power than that of a Peashooter, and thus adequate support is needed.

Trivia

 * The boomerangs that the Bloomerang throws are actually its petals.
 * Bloomerang fires very slow at first, then fires at normal speed after firing the first boomerang.
 * This is one of the six plants seen in the trailer of Plants vs. Zombies 2: It's About Time while fighting the zombies, the other five are Bonk Choy, Pea Pod, Peashooter, Wall-nut and Sunflower.
 * If all the zombies are near the Bloomerang, the boomerang only goes to where the last zombie is and comes back.
 * It can be a good strategy to use Bloomerang when there are many tombstones in Ancient Egypt's levels, so that the three first graves gets two hits at each boomerang thrown.
 * In Bloomerang's almanac entry, Bob Barley is a pun on Bob Marley, a Jamaican songwriter.
 * Though the Plant Food upgrade says the Bloomerang will throw ten boomerangs in four directions, all pictures of the Bloomerang (including the animated picture in the almanac) only show nine.
 * There are many references to Australia.
 * The projectile is based on the Boomerang, a weapon made in ancient Australia.
 * Its friend is a Koala Bear, an animal who lives in Australia.
 * The almanac entry contains the phrase “out back”. Outback is another term for the remote areas of Australia.
 * This may be because it likes Australia, or it was raised or born there.
 * Bloomerang is based off a real-world toy a boomerang to play with.
