Venus Flytrap (捕蝇草; pinyin: bǔ yíng cǎo) was a plant from Plants vs. Zombies Online. It stalled zombies using its mouth. This effect did not do any damage however, unless the plant had been upgraded.

Origins

It was based on the real-life Venus flytrap (Dionaea muscipula), a carnivorous plant native to subtropical wetlands on the East Coast of the United States in North Carolina and South Carolina.

Plant Food effect

When fed Plant Food, the Venus Flytrap caught zombies in its range and ate them, similarly to Chomper and Toadstool.

Adventure Mode

When fed with Plant Food, the Venus Flytrap dealt damage to the target with a side effect.

Strategies

Due to the lack of a reliable attack without Greenhouse upgrades, it should be used like a Wall-nut. Upsides are it being able to survive a single zombie forever. A downside is that, on its own, it will die if a second zombie appears, as it can catch only one of them at a time. Also, this plant cannot stall Gargantuars due to their size.

It is highly advisable to use them mostly in the beginning of the level, as it makes setting up a defense easier. It can also be used to counter Shield Zombies since, in the game, Shield Zombies are tougher, both in their base health and their shield's strength.
