Plants are living organisms that belong to the Plantae kingdom. They obtain most of their energy from sunlight in a process called photosynthesis. However, not all plants absorb energy via photosynthesis. They are the protagonists of Plants vs. Zombies 2 and the player's main defense against the undead assailants.
A total of 33 plants return from the first game, eight of which are now premium plants that must first be bought from the in-game Store with real money or gems before they can be used. Additionally, 30 new plants were added, seven of which are premium plants, bringing the grand total up to 63. However, there are 16 plants exclusive to China, so including them brings the total to 79. In the months following the game's release, PopCap Games intends to add more worlds to the game via updates, and these worlds will bring with them more plants. The following list is therefore open to expansion.
Additionally, a few of the plants not returning from the first game instead appear in cameo roles such as Pumpkin, Gatling Pea and Flower Pot.
