梦想成为芭蕾舞演员的旋涡枇杷有一项绝活：她可以在原地旋转很多圈。“我觉得我一定能成为这个世界上最伟大的芭蕾舞演员，但是没有人愿意聘请我，我不理解为什么会这样。”旋涡枇杷沮丧地说，顺便吞下了一大口冰激凌。 Loquat, who dreams of becoming a ballet dancer, has one trick: She can rotate many rounds in place. "I think I will be able to become the world's greatest ballet dancer, but no one wants to hire me, I do not understand why." Loquat says in frustration, as she swallows a large mouthful of ice-cream.

Loquat (旋涡枇杷; pinyin: xuánwō pípá) is the first plant obtained in Sky City in the Chinese version of Plants vs. Zombies 2. It draws zombies from a 3x3 area, behaving like Sweet Potato, but it smacks the zombies it pulls on each other, which can deal massive damage to the zombies it pulls.

Almanac entry

	旋风橡果可以攻击前方一排的僵尸，并击断海象僵尸的牙齿。 特点：攻击前方一排僵尸，并击断海象僵尸的牙齿。 植物特征：黄色植物、旋风家族 旋风橡果非常喜欢运动。他曾经与回旋镖竞争过植物运动会飞盘表演赛的冠军，可惜后者用一手四方飞盘的技术打败了他。为了能在下一届运动会中能有出彩表现，他开始疯狂练习跑步，他对自己拥有玩飞盘的经验感觉信心满满：他已经可以利用旋转跑出最快的起步速度——副作用是冲出一段距离之后会回旋回来。

Strategy

This plant is completely useless by itself (unless costumed). A good way to use this plant is to combine it with Cherry Bomb, Grapeshot or, Jalapeno, but you have to time their usage.

This plant is better used with its costume. Using Area-of-Effect plants such as Spikeweed, Potato Mine and Winter Melon can deal with the increased stack. Just don't let the stack reach your plants or it will quickly tear through the defenses easily.

This plant is best to use at where it belongs, as it can deal damage to zombies there, and this is also where its level up works.

Loquats are also able to block the bullet attack of the Zombot Eagle-tron, which can wipe clean the lawn if not blocked effectively.
