Auspicious Snow Welcomes Spring (瑞雪迎春; pinyin: ruìxuě yíngchūn) is a new Secret Realm sequel to Celebrating Chinese New Year added to the Chinese version of Plants vs. Zombies 2 as part of the v3.3.0 Chinese New Year update, and the 24th world overall. This Secret Realm features a brand new OST composed for it, a new Elite zombie, free trial of testing out P-Mech Assembler - Flamestar, and unlike it's prequel, features only a night map rather than a day map as well.
Despite the fact that the lawn is set during night, sun will stall from the sky. Unlike it's prequel, sky lanterns and snowballs do not appear in the levels, instead, buff tiles and zombie transformation devices appear in some of the levels.
The player will be fighting zombies from different worlds and eras whilst Memory Lane conditions and gimmicks are present in the levels, while every 4 levels it will be a of one of the Elite zombies from the Frostbite Caves Resurgence Secret Realm, a different one each level. At last, the player will be fighting the Glacial Nian Beast Zombie in the final level, a tougher and evolved variant of Nian Beast Zombie. The player will have to use the same sets of plants they used in at the first level of the 4 levels sets, while also being able to collect sun in his bank which will save up in the next 3 levels.
There's also a new difficulty system present in this realm, which increases every 4 levels. Each difficulty turns the levels more chaotic and more violent, bringing more challenge to the player.

After clearing a level, the player will be prompted to pick a boost from the 3 boosts he will be offered that will be added to his collection until he clears a part of the secret realm (there is Normal and Hard modes). These boosts can either buff plants during the level, provide you with benefits during the level, or allow you to unlock P-Mech Assembler - Flamestar trial to experience it in the levels. In order to unlock it, the player will have to collect a Bamboo Trooper puzzle boost, a Homing Thistle puzzle boost, and a Banksia Boxer puzzle boost. If the player wants to reset his boosts in the collection, resetting progress will be required which will erase the progress from each level the player had, beginning from the 1st level again. It should be noted that this feature can not be exploited to re-collect rewards over and over, as the rewards are one-time rewards you can collect.
The Secret Realm lasted for 24 days, from Feburary 3rd 16:00 2024 to February 26th 16:00 2024 (GMT+8).

Crazy Dave: I heard it, it seems many "old friends" are coming to spend the Spring Festival with us!

Trivia[]
- The music used for the levels is Modern Day - Ultimate Battle, although this secret realm has an OST in the game files. Maybe it was once planned to officially use.
- Despite the lawn taking place during night time, the levels are referred to as days in the level titles.
