Primal Rafflesia (原始大王花; pinyin: yuánshǐ dàwáng huā) is a plant from the Chinese version of Plants vs. Zombies 2. He was added in the 2.0 update.
Primal Rafflesia lobs balls at the zombies then creates a puddle that slows down zombies (similar to Sap-fling). Ten of Primal Rafflesia's Puzzle Pieces can be obtained by purchasing ¥168 worth of in-game items. 30 of Primal Rafflesia's Puzzle Pieces can be obtained if ¥298 is spent, and 60 Puzzle Pieces if ¥398 is spent.

Origins

Like his more modern counterpart, Primal Rafflesia is based on the rafflesia, specifically the corpse lily (Rafflesia arnoldi), a genus of parasitic flowering plants in the family Rafflesiaceae.
His costume references how the Chinese word for "Rafflesia", 大王花, translates literally as "King Flower".

Strategies
Use Primal Rafflesia at the back lines for maximum advantage as it can provide slowing and decent damage at a reasonable rate. Combine this with some melee plants (e.g. Guerrequila, Zorrose) and you will have a decent combo. Make sure to protect him well with other attacking plants and defensive plants like Primal Wall-nut, as he is quite expensive. Otherwise, using Intensive Carrot would be a good idea if you do manage to get him eaten.
