The first one is the Bowling Bulb. I think this is my third most hated plant in this game. His only purpose in the game is be a bad reminiscent of the Bowling Mini-game of the first game. Besides of that, is useless against the Octo, Fisherman and Surfer Zombies, and weak as heck (just the bucketheads give you troubles if you use this plant!) I actually found him quite useful in some levels of BWB including day 25. The plant food effect is just awesome.

And I really have to go update my game now and you can't convince me any of the plants are useless. I've found a use for all of them. I would have agreed with you when it was nerfed the first time. But, I would now disagree. The only EZs where Bowling Bulb are at least somewhat decent for me is Pyramid of Khufu, DeadFoxy'sBooty, and Terror from Yesterday. Its timer mechanic could have been better, (I'm trying to be optimistic, but I'm in a pessimistic mood) as it could have Been longer. While a PF doesn't make a plant necessarily stronger (FIRE PEASHOOTER! YOU OVERRATED PLANT! IF IT WEREN'T FOR YOUR PF, TORCHWOOD AND PEASHOOTER WOULD MATHEMATICALLY DESTROY YOU!), it is a huge selling point.

I feel bad that it got needed TWICE. Like fans need another reason(excuse) to hate on BWB.

I use Banana Launcher, but its sun cost should have been no more than 450.
