Match Flower

Match Flower Boxer (火柴花拳手; pinyin: huǒchái huā quánshǒu) is a plant in the Chinese version of Plants vs. Zombies 2 introduced in the 1.8.2 update. It attacks zombies by punching them one tile in front of it. After dealing a certain amount of damage (c.a. four attack cycles), it will set its petals on fire and start to do more damage. It can also be set on fire by other plants. When it is on fire, it can light up peas that pass through it, just like Torchwood. However, the fire is only available for a while.

To get this plant, the player must spend fire crystals to spin the slot for Puzzle Pieces or spin the slot in an amount of times.

One of Match Flower Boxer's Puzzle Pieces can be traded in, along with ten red rocks, in order to obtain one of Firebloom Queen's Puzzle Pieces.

Origins
Match Flower Boxer's designs is based on the banksia cuneata, also known as the Matchstick Banksia or Quairading Banksia.

Its costume, a pair of red boxing gloves, is a reference to how it attacks zombies.
