The Podfather is a premiumrareplantteammate appearing in Plants vs. Zombies Heroes and a member of the Mega-Grow[[File:|20px|link=]] plants. He costs 3 and has 2/2 when first played. His effect is that, when a pea plant is played while this teammate is on the field, the former will get +2/+2.
His name, appearance, and description are all a reference to the 1972 movie The Godfather. This plant's name is a portmanteau of "Pod," referring to the fact that he is a pea plant and "Godfather," the character this plant is based on.

"I'm gonna make the Zombies an offer they can't refuse."
Strategies
This plant should be used in tandem with other pea plants, such as Peashooter. His base stats are decent for 3 sun, but the main gimmick of this plant is his effect. He gives a pea plant 2 strength and health points, which is a great buff early game. Try and keep this plant as long as possible if a pea plant strategy is being used.
Powerful pea plants like Repeater and Fire Peashooter should be used with this plant. Using Torchwood is also a great idea because it will power the pea plants even more.
Using Green Shadow is ideal for this plant, as you get more pea plants with Green Shadow, who is a Mega-Grow/Smarty hero.
Counters
Try and dispose of this plant quickly if the plant hero places down lots of pea plants. Using a trick can help with effortlessly dealing with this plant. Don't bother bouncing this plant, as the plant hero can replant him and reuse his effects.
