Puffball is a premium plant in Plants vs. Zombies 2 that was introduced in the 8.2.1 update. It explodes when planted, dealing poisonous damage to zombies in three different columns.
Zombies damaged by the poison will also be momentarily be stunned, and planting multiple Puffballs will stack poison effects.
Origins
Puffball is based on, and named after, the puffball type of fungi which are known for bursting upon maturity and dispersing copious amounts of airborne spores.
Puffball's purple coloration makes it more specifically resemble a purple-spored puffball, (Calvatia cyathiformis), a large edible saprobic species of Calvatia mushrooms.
