Primal Sunflower is a colossalsuper-rareplantcard in Plants vs. Zombies Heroes and a member of the Solar class. It costs 1 to play and has 2/1. It does not have any traits, and its ability gives the plant hero +1 at the start of every turn, starting from the next turn after it is played. This ability stacks with each Primal Sunflower on the field and persists until all Primal Sunflowers are removed from the field.
Its description is a reference to how Sunflowers are not offensive plants in most games. (Ironically, the PVZ2 Primnal Sunflower does not attack zommbies)

Strategies
With
Just like Template:PvZHLink, Primal Sunflower is a cheap sun-producing plant that will give you an advantage in your supply of sun the following turn. However, unlike Sunflower, Primal Sunflower has 2, giving it offensive properties as well. This means that it will give you additional sun the next turn and do damage to your opponent if it survives the current turn.
However, since sun-producing plants are prioritized due to their threatening ability, the chances of Primal Sunflower surviving after turn 2 are very low, unless your opponent is setting something up themselves. Another unfortunate thing is that Primal Sunflower does not have the Team-Up trait, unlike Sunflower. So, unlike Sunflower, who can be defended with other plants, Primal Sunflower has to defend for itself. There is one major exception; if you play as Wall-Knight, there is a wide range of nut plants that you can select from to defend it, examples being Template:PvZHLink, Water Chestnut, Template:PvZHLink, Mirror-Nut, and Template:PvZHLink. While other heroes also have Team-Up plants, theirs are much more frail than Wall-Knight's.
Chompzilla and Wall-Knight can remedy its lack of Team-Up via stat-increasing cards such as Lily of the Valley and Steel Magnolia. As Template:PvZHLink, she can Bounce zombies out of the way or Freeze zombies to preserve it. And finally, Solar Flare can use it to ramp up to a Pineclone play with many weak plants and Primal Sunflower itself being turned into Pineclones.
Generally, it fits in nicely with a flower deck, since it can be used as cheap bait for Briar Rose or heal you if Template:PvZHLink is on the field.
Against
Primal Sunflower is an extremely annoying plant. It gives your opponent an advantage and has some strength. But due to the low stats, almost anything can take it out, though if you are to use a zombie, beware of Briar Rose, and resort to tricks instead.
