Upgrades
Plant Food effect
It begins to sing and makes every plant dance and forms sun into a heart shape and later a "2" shape. After the sun falls onto the ground, it gives the player 280 sun. The effect also stuns zombies. Some plants have special abilities that activate only after dancing.
Costumed
While singing, it makes other Sunflower Singers produce 50 sun. This has no extra effect on plants with Special Abilities.
Plants with known special abilities
- Primal Peashooter: Shoots a giant ball of lava akin to Pitaya's Plant Food effect. Very effective at clearing lanes of zombies.
- Cowardly Thorns: Heals itself to full health.
- Ghost Pepper: Delayed for a short time, allowing it to deal more damage before it explodes.
- Dinosaur Roar Grass: Automatically devours any zombie it was eating.
- Chomper: Automatically devours any zombie it was eating.
- Toadstool: Automatically devours any zombie it was eating.
Level upgrade
Strategy
Sunflower Singer is effectively a more powerful version of Twin Sunflower. The fact that it can boost the attack of other plants surrounding it and that it gives more sun when fed plant food (280 from Sunflower Singer compared to 250 from Twin Sunflower). Sunflower Singer can also stun zombies when it uses its plant food effect. However, plants are also unable to attack while it sings unless fed plant food.
A good way to wipe clean the current horde of zombies is to have 1 Sunflower Singer on 1 Power Tile (either naturally in Far Future or created with Tile Turnip), having one column of level 4/5 costumed Flame Flower Queen or level 4 costumed Laser Bean on the same colored Power Tile, and then using plant food on the Sunflower Singer. As the zombies gets stunned by Sunflower Singer's plant food effect, the plant food effect of Flame Flower Queen/Laser Bean will be unleashed on the zombies, resulting in the current lawn being completely wiped clean. What makes this strategy even better is that if this is used on a zombot that is about to clear the lane of plants (with the exception of the Zombot Aerostatic Gondola and the Zombot Battle Eagle-tron) (charge attack cannot be stopped in any ways) and laser bean was used (Flame Flower Queen's plant food projectile does not stop the charge attack from occurring from a distance), the lane clearing attack will be temporarily stopped due to Sunflower Singer's plant food effect and then the zombot gets hit by the plant food projectile of the plant. When the stunning effect of Sunflower Singer's plant food projectile is over, the zombot will be stunned due to getting hit by the plant food projectile. If there are many costumed Sunflower Singers and they are equipped with the Spotlight Flower Pot when you use plant food on the Sunflower Singer, all the other will produce an extra 25 sun, which can allow easy sun farming. Take note that the original Sunflower Singer will not activate the benefit of the Spotlight Flower Pot.
If you do not intend to use Sunflower Singer as a way to increase damage dealt to the zombies, then treat this plant like Twin Sunflower.
