Strategies

Wildflower is decent on their own, but is much better in groups or with AI. Stay next to AI to get armor buffs, and group up with AI and player Wildflowers to trick enemies into thinking you are AI, get armor and launch devastating attacks in a group. You can see where other Wildflowers are by the link-up icon you see as Acorn or Space Cadet.

It is a good strategy to go around and plant minions and potted plants, as with one minion, potted plant, or another Wildflower nearby, you gain an extra 20% armor, with 2 plants you gain 35% armor, with 3 you gain 45% armor, with 4 you gain 55% armor, and with 5 you gain 60% armor. This is a good reason to stay grouped up with others.

Trivia

When on the "Top Performers" screen after a match, the sound Wildflower makes when taunting is replaced with the sound a Foot Soldier makes when taunting.
When in a Private Play match of Battle Arena, AI Wildflowers are already sprinting, even though normal players can't move during the start of the match.
