The official name of this plant is Pyro-shroom. However, a literal translation can be found in its infobox. The official name is to be used on all pages that refer to this plant.

Pyro-shroom (烈焰菇; pinyin: lièyàn gū) is a plant in the Chinese version of Plants vs. Zombies 2. He launches fireballs at zombies, dealing 40 Damage per shot. Similarly to Sun-shroom, Strawburst and his ice counterpart, Cryo-shroom, he grows after a certain amount of time in three stages. At the third stage, he will shoot meteors out from the sky, dealing damage to zombies in a 3x3 area.

Strategies

Pyro-shroom is an overall good offensive plant. He is quite weak during his early stages, as he has a considerable weak firepower for a plant that costs 225 sun. Plant Food can be used on him to boost his growth and eliminate incoming zombies. Do note that a grown-up Pyro-shroom is vulnerable to zombie attacks since they take some time to grow to full size.

However, he is outclassed by Dragonfruit, who is cheaper and can attack in a 3x3 area right from the bat.

Trivia

• His cap resembles a wizard's hat.
• When he is fully grown, the fire will spin around him and his projectiles come from the sky instead of shooting them.
• Before the 1.3.2 update, he did not reverse ice effects, unlike other fire plants.
• His almanac entry references the "E.D.G.E. method" ("explain, demonstrate, guide, enable"), a common technique used to teach skills in Boy Scouts.
• Due to a glitch, he can often not attack at all in his third stage, having the animation simply looping
