Trivia

  • The unused flying plant resembles the Garlic Drone, Rotobaga, and the Cycloque. Among all of these, it resembles Cycloque the most.
  • The Miner Zombie's ability resembles the Digger Zombie's ability in the first game.
  • The Artichoke plant resembles the Artichoke plant in Plants vs. Zombies: All Stars.
  • The Scarecrow-like zombie possibly could have crushed plants with its scarecrow. Similar to the Surfer Zombie, but does not have the ability to surf.
  • The Mammoth Wall-nut may have been the inspiration for Primal Wall-nut.
  • The unused pineapple plant closely resembles Spinnapple, a plant exclusive to the Chinese version of the game

Early design

Before the release of the game, these are the graphics that were going to be used.

UI concept art

The following images are concept art done by Noah Maas. Tactical Cuke, an unused upgrade or Power Up, can be seen. According to the first three images, it seems that the seed packets were like the first game's seed packets on mobile devices. The second image showcased that plants were once going to be leveled up like in the Chinese version and the menu button appeared on the seed selection screen. The 5th image seems to use seeds similar to the seeds in Plants vs. Zombies' DS version.

Beet

Beet from Plants vs. Zombies Adventures was originally going to be in this game, until Bonk Choy took its place. Had it not been scrapped, it would have been the first plant from Plants vs. Zombies Adventures to be added into Plants vs. Zombies 2. Though, Plants vs. Zombies Heroes has used a very similar design to the scrapped Beet as a nod to his appearance in Plants vs. Zombies Adventures. This was due to the early artistic influences from the cancelled Plants vs. Zombies Adventures in development of PvZ Heroes.

Flower Pots

The Flower Pot was seen in concept art. It was going to be used in worlds without soil or sand, similar to the Roof in the first game, such as Dark Ages and Pirate Seas. These pots are called "crappy" pot, regular pot (like the one from the first game), perma-pot (or gold pot) and hover pot.

The pots had upgrades and had different tiers. For example, the "hover pot" would allow plants to be planted on any surface. The concept was deemed to be too "tiring" and scrapped. A year later, this concept was picked up and put into use in the Chinese version of Plants vs. Zombies 2. Plants are now able to be upgraded via First Aid Kits.

Would have summoned a Peasant Zombie upon destruction.

GravestoneMysteryZombieOnDestruction

Would have presumably summoned a random zombie upon destruction according to its internal name, but is only set to summon a regular Peasant Zombie.

GravestoneMysterySunOnDestruction

Would have presumably given a random amount of sun when destroyed according to its internal name, but only gives the same amount as a regular Sun Gravestone.

GravestoneZombieTimeSpawner

Would have spawned Peasant Zombies. Each time spawner has a set time to start summoning zombies upon spawning or start of the game, along with a wait time between summon and another until it self destructs, releasing several of them.

  • Until Next Summon: 10 seconds
  • Seconds to Self Destruct: 69 seconds

Unused Barricades

An unused gimmick which would have made zombies switch lanes. This was later repurposed for the ice sliders in Frostbite Caves.

Unused Gimmick

NonDarkPlantSlowCooldown is an unused gimmick which would have doubled the recharge time of plants obtained outside of Dark Ages.

Big Wave Beach

This version was changed from the coding as of the 2.7.1 update. On June 20, 2014, PopCap developed the world "The Beach." The Beach would only have 20 levels like Dark Ages, however it was later changed to 25, and finally to 32 levels.

Early/Unused text

  • Big Wave Beach's previous name was "The Beach".
  • "The Beach" description: "Check out the beach, it's hot. Get it? Hot!"
  • Tiki Torch-er was originally named "Coastal Calamity".

There is also scrapped dialogue from what was originally The Beach - Day 10.

Unused Bulb Bowling features

A giant version of the Bowling Bulb was going to appear in Bulb Bowling, although only in Day 8, as no code exists for it on Day 24. It functions similarly to the Giant Wall-nut in the mini-game Wall-nut Bowling 2 from Plants vs. Zombies.

Early Bulb Seed Packets

Early versions of the Bulb Bowling seed packets.

Frostbite Caves

Ice Age world preview (unfinished)

  • Before being renamed, its concept name was Ice Age. It was advertised as having "+16 Levels! +3 Plants!," and a total of 19 items.
  • Icebound Battleground was originally named "Frozen Fear." The introduction text was originally:
[NARRATIVE_DANGER_ROOM_INTRO_ICEAGE_1] {NPC_ENTER:crazydave}{SAY}Hi neighbor! Welcome to Frozen Fear!  [NARRATIVE_DANGER_ROOM_INTRO_ICEAGE_2] {SAY}It's even more challenging than the Slushee of Sorrow!
  • Zombot Tuskmaster 10,000 BC was originally named "Zombot Mastodon-otron."

Unused level

There is an unused Frostbite Caves Locked and Loaded level with five Hot Potatoes and a lawn full of plants frozen in ice blocks. The level constantly freezes your plants, forcing you to use Hot Potatoes. It might have been an early version of Frostbite Caves - Day 24.

Trivia

  • It was the first level with multiple versions of the same plant, with five Hot Potatoes (not counting imitated plants). Furthermore, it is also the only other level where all the tiles are pre-planted on and frozen; the second being a step in Electrical Boogaloo.
  • It is the only other level not to feature ice floes, the other being Frostbite Caves - Day 30.

Whack-A-Zombie

Whack a Zombie was meant to return as a mini-game for Frostbite Caves, evident by the unused dialog found in the game files. Code also exists, but no sprites associated with it. 

[NARRATIVE_ICEAGE_INTRO_MINIGAME_1] {NPC_ENTER:crazydave}{NPC_ENTER:winnie}{SAY:crazydave}{SAY:crazydave}It's too quiet. Where is everyone? I have a bad feeling about this.

It's ... hammer time.

Lost City

Early Gold Tiles

Gold tiles functioned somewhat different in earlier versions of the game. They would give 100 sun instead of 50, did not give out any upon first planting, and had a 25 second wait time instead 20. It was also tied to some sort of in-game event. If you had a number amount of plants on gold tiles during a certain point of the game, it would drop a bunch of sun if you were winning (had the number of plants on gold tiles required), or take away sun if the zombies were winning (not enough plants on gold tiles).

Unused achievement

Can't Stop the Rock: Defeat 5 zombies with a single boulder trap. The achievement was proven to be too easy, as even a zombie itself can achieve this for the player in Lost City - Day 22.

Neon Mixtape Tour

Early name

According to the string files of the credits of the 3.9 update, Neon Mixtape Tour is referred to internally as "Mondo Mixtape Tour" (MONDOMIXTAPETOUR), which could mean it was possibly an older name or another developer name. However, the game internally refers to Neon Mixtape Tour as "eighties."

Early lawn

The early lawn was identical to the current one but has red cups all over the place. These were likely removed due to having a reference to alcohol.

Jurassic Marsh

  • Jurassic Marsh's prototype name was Mesozoic Marsh.
  • Mesozoic Marsh (old name of Jurassic Marsh) in Part 1, would have only had 2 dinosaurs (raptor and stegosaurus).
  • In Part 2, there would be 3 dinosaurs (T. Rex, Ankylosaurus and either Pterodactyl, Brontosaurus, or a new dinosaur).
  • In version 4.1.1, Cold Snapdragons home world was set to Jurassic Marsh, meaning it was originally unlocked from playing Jurassic Marsh instead of being a premium plant.

Modern Day

Unused Power Fill Buttons.png

Unused Beghouled Power Up

There is an unused powerup in Beghouled which was cyan in color and a shovel depicated to filling a hole. It was likely an early version of Power Shovel.

Unused achievement

99 Undead Balloons: Prevent Balloon Zombies from crossing the 5th column. The reason for this being removed is possibly because Blover can easily blow Balloon Zombies away easily before they can even reach the 5th column.

Unused worlds

Tutorial World

There are codes for a tutorial world, in which the first four tutorial levels could have been played again like normal levels. This was later scrapped for an unknown reason.

Prehistoric World

Before the android release, there was data for a world simply named "prehistoric." Nothing else existed for this world, except its existence in the world map selection data.

Time Twister

Time Twister was originally in the game files, but it was later removed. It would have been the final world, composed of features from all the previous worlds. The idea would later be incorporated as Modern Day, as both contain previous world gimmicks and zombies. The name was later reused for a Piñata Party event, and the world icon was later used for the game mode Penny's Pursuit.

Early music

Pirate Seas

UNRELEASED PIRATE SEAS MUSIC (Plants vs. Zombies 2) (Laura Shigihara)-1589109804

The music that plays in Crazy Dave's second transmission is an early version of Pirate Seas' music. It was composed by Laura Shigihara, all of which was confirmed here. The original track was later found and uploaded on YouTube by Laura Shigihara herself.

Wild West

In Crazy Dave's last transmission there is an early version of wild west music. It was reused in Plants vs. Zombies: All Stars

Mid Wave B

Far Future

Found in v1.5, an early version of Wave 1 which sounded drastically different than the final version.

Early Plant names/functions

Plantable in-game Marigold

Although not unused, Marigold was originally meant to be plantable in-game, but this idea was later scrapped and became only available in the Zen Garden. If made available to be planted on the lawn (either via hacking or other means), Marigold would produce silver coins, but will eventually fall asleep after a period of time. If fed plant food, she will produce a burst of silver coins and then disappear.

Pirate Seas

Spikeweed

An early Plant Food effect that would have presumably have Spikeweed launch a buzzsaw. This concept would later be used for Iceweed's Plant Food ability.

Cherry Bomb

The high-level explosion effect of cherry bomb has been completed, but it has been scrapped for unknown reasons

Far Future

MagnifyinGrass

Drops the rather awkward and unnecessary pun.

Plasma Bean

An early plant what would eventually become Citron, found solely in extremely early versions of the iOS exclusive releases. 

[PLASMABEAN] Plasma Bean  [PLASMABEAN_DESCRIPTION] {FLAVOR}As a young bean he dreamed of becoming a magical fruit.  Maybe some kind of citrus specializing in close-up magic.  [PLASMABEAN_DESCRIPTION_HEADER] Plasma Beans shoot powerful balls of plasma.  [PLASMABEAN_TOOLTIP] Shoots powerful balls of plasma

E.M. Peach

Has unused code that would have allowed it to be planted and activated manually, recoverying after a 10 second wait time. Although does not appear to function anymore.

Dark Ages

PvZ Placeholder sprites

An unreleased version of the game has Sun-shroom and Puff-shroom using still sprites from the first game.

Big Wave Beach

Bowling Bulb

Two early concepts purposed by Mark Barrett for the plant would have one be a tap to activate plant, needing time to charge before growing again. The other would have it be an instant use plant.

Lost City

Column Pod

Changed into Red Stinger, seeing as it increases defense when put further from the player's house.

Gold Tile Turnip

Changed into Gold Leaf, seeing as it refers to the Gold Tile-producing Tile Turnip.

Jurassic Marsh

Dinonip

Changed into Perfume-shroom. A plant with the same name, although different function, would later be incorporated in the Chinese version.

Modern Day

Aquabooster

Changed into Moonflower, although unknown what it could have originally been since it functioned exactly like Potato Mine, probably as a placeholder.

Grimrose

A video uploaded by animator Liam Robinson shows the non-shadow version with 3 stamens. In a reply to a comment, he said: "The engineering got so muddled and complicated because of the transformation to "shadow version", I think that communication got lost in the game."

Unused Plants

Tactical Cuke

Nothing much is known of what it could have done. It was later reworked as a power up for the Chinese version of Plants vs. Zombies 2.

Far Future

Ampliflower

A plant that would have buffed other plants around it. According to Mark Barrett, one of the artists for the game, the concept ended up being to complicated and overpowered, so it was scrapped. The only reference to it is in an early version of the Far Future map code.

Dark Ages

Before the release of the 2.3.1 update, some mushrooms were found in the code. These were later replaced by the new plants in Dark Ages.

Scaredy-shroom

Would have functioned exactly like it did in the original Plants vs. Zombies.

Pult-shroom

It would have lobbed projectiles at a steady rate, but slowly increasing, and lobbing more projectiles over time. Each spore does 40 damage per shot, and 200 DPS for its Plant Food spore. Its cost was 75 sun, and had a fast recharge. It functions a lot like Blooming Heart does.

Roto-shroom

It could have been manually be set to the direction the player wants it to shoot. Capable of shooting in eight fixed directions, with each spore dealing 20 DPS. Its cost was 175 sun, and had a fast recharge.

Dart-shroom

Could only be planted on the first five columns on the lawn. Its darts did 33 DPS. Before the 2.3.1 update, it was scheduled to appear in Locked and Loaded levels. Its cost was 100 sun, and had a fast recharge.

Zoom-shroom

It functioned similarly to how Chard Guard functions now, knocking back zombies. It also would vanish after 10 seconds, like Puff-shroom. Its cost was 50 sun, had a range of "Touch," and had a very slow recharge.

Vacuum-shroom

Had the same toughness as Wall-nut, and it would have acted like Sweet Potato. Plant Food would give it a shield like Wall-nut as well. The vacuum effect has a 3x3 range. Its cost was 25 sun, and had a sluggish recharge.

Evil-shroom Speed

An unused plant which was simply a placeholder test for the orange evil potion. When eaten, it increases the speed of the zombie who ate it. You could also tap on it 3 times to destroy it. Its cost was 50 sun, and had a sluggish recharge.

Evil-shroom Toughness

An unused plant which was simply a placeholder test for the purple evil potion. When eaten, it increases the toughness of the zombie who ate it. You could also tap on it 3 times to destroy it. Its cost was 50 sun, and had a sluggish recharge.

Big Wave Beach

Coconut Bowler

This plant was an early version of, and was replaced by Bowling Bulb, although its projectiles dealt consistent damage, each one dealing 100 DPS, and were angled more. Its cost was 10 sun, and had a sluggish recharge. Most of its properties seem to have just been placeholders.

Bamboom

It would have functioned like its final counter, Banana Launcher, although had 1 second reload time and a 3x3 splash area that dealt 4000 DPS. Its cost was 10 sun, and had a sluggish recharge. Most of it properties seem to have just been placeholders.

Sprout

Sprout was originally meant to be used in the Zen Garden instead of small plants, but was ultimately scrapped. Strangely, it was later given code to be plantable in-game. It was associated with an unused mini-game where one would plant a few Sprouts before the game started. When planted on an odd column, it has a 50% chance of growing into a Sunflower and a 50% chance for a Peashooter, and a 75% chance of growing into a Wall-nut and a 25% into Tall-nut on even columns. This plant was accidentally exposed in the Neon Mixtape Tour, Side B Dev Diary.

Lost City

Sun Pod

Has similar properties to Pea Pod. It would grow a head for every 500 sun you had in your bank. Its cost is 300 sun, and has a fast recharge. This plant was accidentally exposed in the Neon Mixtape Tour, Side B Dev Diary.

Sun Gun

A single use plant that would have attracted sun, then would have shot it out towards a zombie with each shot dealing 150 DPS. Its cost is 75 sun, and has a fast recharge. This plant was accidentally exposed in the Neon Mixtape Tour, Side B Dev Diary.

Holly Barrier Leaf

It's not technically unused, just unseen. It's very buggy whenever planted, ranging either from dealing no damage to dealing insane damage.

Holly Barrier Leaf Plant Food

It's not technically unused, just unseen. It's very buggy whenever planted, ranging either from dealing no damage to dealing insane damage.

Mini Peashooter

Mini Peashooter shoots peas at zombies like Peashooter, although they only deal 5 DPS. When fed Plant Food, all Mini Peashooters on the lawn will create duplicates towards the front or same column if there isn't enough room. It will not create any towards the back of the leftmost Mini Peashooter, even if the lawn becomes full. Its cost is 25 sun, and has a fast recharge. Mini Peashooter can not be boosted by Appease-mint, although its seed packet shows that it is in the Appease-mint family. Since it uses a different pea projectile, they do not turn into fire peas when passing through Torchwood or be reflected by Jester Zombie.

Burnade

Burnade knocks a zombie back and then despawns. After a set time, the zombie explodes, instantly killing the zombie and dealing damage equal to said zombie's health in a 4x3 area. Plant Food gives it 3 uses before expiring.

Icy Currant

Icy Currant is an unused plant in Plants vs. Zombies 2. Nothing much known about it beside its seed packet sprite. It was added in 2.2.4. update of the Chinese version of Plants vs. Zombies 2 as a fully functional plant, being an ice variant of Electric Currant.

Noctarine Cloud

It's not technically unused, just unseen. It disappears instantly upon planting.

Early zombie names/functions

Ancient Egypt

Unused almanac entries

Variations for the Camel Zombie once had names and description headers, but were ultimately grouped into one entry, leaving these unused.

Pirate Seas

Unused Pirate Barrel almanac entry

Barrel Zombie's barrel once had its own description with almanac icon.

Unused Treasure Yeti costume

Yeticowboy.png

There was going to be a Wild West costume for Treasure Yeti, but went unused due to the wrong codename being used for Wild West.

Far Future

There exists an early version of Disco-tron 3000's theme.

Sound Description
The theme.

Dark Ages

Early Placeholder Peasant Zombies

Had simple placeholder sprites, being a recolored Future Zombie with a Pirate Seas flag.

Big Wave Beach

Early Zombie Names

Many of the zombie's names changed in the final release.

Lost City

Unused Excavator Zombie animations

Excavator Zombie has an unused eating animation never seen in the game, as he simply bashes using his shovel if he can't pass through something like Infi-nut's shield. As well as a death animation without the shovel.

Unused Relic Hunter Zombie falling animation

Relic Hunter Zombie has an unused animation of him falling off while swinging, similar to Swashbuckler Zombie. Since this chance is always set to zero, it is never used. Likely a leftover animation from Swashbuckler Zombie.

Neon Mixtape Tour

Early Neon Flag Zombie Emblem

Instead of a brain, Neon Flag Zombie used to have a written the logo of ZTV, a parody of MTV. This was still used in the Piñata Party teaser icon.

Unused MC Zom-B and Breakdancer Zombie idle animations

MC Zom-B and Breakdancer Zombie's MC Zom-B and Breakdancer Zombie have unused idle animations that were probably going to be used in the Almanac and seed selection. By modifying the game, it is possible for MC Zom-B and Breakdancer Zombie to play these animations. Punk Zombie also has an unused dancing animation but has since been removed since Neon Mixtape Tour Side B.

However, these animations were reused in the Chinese version of Plants vs. Zombies 2 for when Pyro-shroom's Plant Food ability is used.

Despite their removal in the Side B update, these animations reappear in the game as the animation for when Snap Pea is about to eat them. Also, they are briefly seen when the Zombot Multi-stage Masher summons them in Neon Mixtape Tour - Day 32 and Modern Day - Day 34, but they are never properly used.

Placeholder Punk Zombie Descriptions

In version 3.8.1, the Punk Zombie has a placeholder description. 

[ZOMBIE_EIGHTIES_PUNK_DESCRIPTION] Punk Zombie Description  [ZOMBIE_EIGHTIES_PUNK_DESCRIPTION_HEADER] Punk Zombie Description Header

Roman Zombies

Unused almanac entries

Similarly to the Camel Zombies, 2 of Roman Shield Zombie's variations have full unused almanac entries.

Unused Zombies

ZombieProto

It was either an early version of the Basic Zombie, or a test zombie used for debugging the game while it was still in development. Only sprites and some animations for the zombie existed. It was removed in later versions.

Cleopatra Zombie

cleopatra

Was meant to be used by a scrapped event which you would go and fight her, similar to the Zombie Yeti. She walks for a brief moment before doing a dance, summoning 4 Mummy Zombies on adjacent tiles next to her, akin to the Dancing Zombie. It would have been a sort of mini-boss, but was scrapped for being too weak. Normally she spawns zombies in a diamond pattern, but has further unused patterns. Those being blocker, vertical, horizontal and square patterns.

Far Future

Deflector Zombie

future_protector_veteran

This zombie was made late in development. It was likely cut due to not being much of a threat with existing plants. Its current placeholder is Shield Zombie. 

[ZOMBIE_FUTURE_PROTECTOR_VETERAN] Deflector Zombie  [ZOMBIE_FUTURE_PROTECTOR_VETERAN_DESCRIPTION] {KEYWORD}Special: {STAT}shield regenerates over time  {FLAVOR}Deflector Zombie saw what Shield Zombie was doing and said to himself, "BRAAAAAAINS," because that's really the only word zombies know.  [ZOMBIE_FUTURE_PROTECTOR_VETERAN_DESCRIPTION_HEADER] Deflector Zombie protects himself with a powerful force field that stretches across 5 rows.

Mech-Cone Zombie

mech_cone_veteran

An upgraded variant of Robo-Cone Zombie. He absorbs 200 more normal damage shots and moves faster. Was likely cut due to not being much of a threat compared to Holo Head Zombie, given its low health.

Dark Ages

Imp variants

dark_imp_cone, dark_imp_bucket, dark_imp_crown

According to their names, there were going to be three other basic Imp variants: conehead, buckethead and crown.

Thief Zombie

dark_thief

The zombie would have acted like Bungee Zombie from the first game. Although would steal the rightmost plant in its column instead of randomly picking a tile.

Knight Zombie

dark_knight

Unlike the final Knight Zombie, it was going to have slightly less health, 1505 HP, and was going to be able to deflect straight shot projectiles, although could still be harmed by lobbed shots. Deflected shots can still harm other Knight Zombies. Its concept was most likely reworked into Jester Zombie.

Barrel Zombie

pvza_barrel

Its function is very similar to Pharaoh Zombie, almost the same except with different stats. It is named after the Barrel Zombie from Plants vs. Zombies Adventures.

Blacksmith Zombie

dark_blacksmith

This zombie could make helmets for other Peasant Zombies. It had to first assemble 5 parts of metal that would take 1.5 seconds to make, and then it would make and give a helmet to the zombie that is closest to the player's house, it could also upgrade the zombies who wore these helmets. The Blacksmith was later replaced with Zombie King.

Gravedropper Zombie

dark_gravedropper

Would have carried a gravestone with them, which could also be able to absorb overflow damage like Pharaoh's sarcophagus in earlier versions of the game. Whenever it reached a plant, it would slam the gravestone into place. It would then begin to walk at a faster pace, or do so when the gravestone it was carrying was destroyed. Its ability to drop graves was later reworked/reused by Surfer Zombie when on land.

Wizard Zombie

dark_wizard

Slightly different from the Wizard Zombie in the final game, this version would have shot projectiles at plants which would turn plants into sheep instead of zapping them instantaneously.

  • This was later on tweaked and implemented as Wizard Zombie's Plague Pharmacy Ability in PvP Mode on the Chinese version of this game.

Castlehead Zombie

dark_armor4

Was a zombie meant to be used in the unreleased Dark Ages expansion. It would have been the Brickhead Zombie of the expansion.

Peasant Rally Zombie

dark_flag_veteran

Was a zombie meant to used in the unreleased Dark Ages expansion. It would have been the Rally Zombie of the expansion.

Veteran Wizard Zombie

dark_wizard_veteran

Was a zombie meant to be used in the unreleased Dark Ages expansion. It would have been the veteran counterpart to Wizard Zombie.

Big Wave Beach

Fast Swimmer Zombie

beach_fastswimmer

It would have traveled fast in water, and normal speed on land. It was most likely reworked into the Surfer Zombie. Its current placeholder is a Basic Zombie.

ZombiePet

pet

A zombie which can only be spawned by the unused feature "Zombie Spawner." Its stats are similar to Basic Zombie, but it walks slower.

Lost City

Totem Dropper Zombie

Totem Dropper Zombie would have dropped objects to create a totem and would have required 3 objects in a pile to create the said totem. The totem would have then afterwards summoned an Explorer Zombie. It might have been a prototype version of the Imp Porter.

Early powerup names/functions

Power Flame

Had a much longer though less narrow reach.

A slightly early design for the Extra Plant Food upgrade that had rings behind it similar to Instant Recharge upgrade.

Mower Launch

Its design had different shading than the final release.

Unused powerups & upgrades

There are several unused upgrades found in the code.

Bacon

It is unknown what it does, but there is some text related to "Collectible Bacon" in the files. You can tap the little "X" on the side to add 1 bacon, although costs 10 coins, with the price increasing by 10 each time. The amount of bacon bought cannot be saved. It would have likely served a similar function to the Bacon in the first game on mobile, essentially being useless.

  • Description: Collect Bacon. Because Bacon.

Powerup Duration 1 & 2

Increases the duration the power-ups can stay active, even single-use ones, which allows for several uses per one. Two exist in the game's files.

  • Description: Increases the duration that your powerups are active.

Valuable Mowers

An upgrade that makes lawn mowers give two coins instead of one.

  • Description: Drops more money for each lawnmower at the end of a level.

Color Change Vase

Lets you change the color of a vase, for example turning a brown vase into a green vase. It was added in v2.4.1, and later removed in v6.2.1.

Cherry Bomb Power Up

An unused powerup that was meant to be used in a Pinata Party event, but was eventually scrapped. If modded in a level, it requires sun equal to what the plant would normally cost plant, although free on conveyor belt levels. It has a cooldown of 5 seconds. It was added in v2.7.1, and later removed in v6.2.1. Although its code still exists and can be brought back. 

[ADVICE_CHERRY_BOMB_POWERUP] Plant Cherry Bomb to destroy zombies!  [WORLDMAP_EVENT_LOD_CHERRY_BOMB_POWERUP_DESC] Cherries are the BOOM!  [WORLDMAP_EVENT_LOD_CHERRY_BOMB_POWERUP_TITLE] Choose Cherry Bombs as a Power Up and explode today's Piñata Party.

Unknown Upgrade

No other information on this upgrade is known at this time other than a sprite. However, it may be an early design for the Extra Seed Slot upgrade.

Unused Zen Garden features

Unused boosts

There are some unused boosts found in the code, which are called Bounty Hunter, Extra Toughness, Fast Recharge, Rapid Fire, Shovel Bomb and Sun Discount. There was also another boost only found in v1.9 named "BoostMarigold." They could be obtained in the Zen Garden.

Early Zen Garden boost system

The Zen Garden was original going to feature other boost options for plants, but was scrapped along with the other boosts and only First Strike ended up being used.

v1.9

At this point the early boost system was incomplete, as only a few plants had unique boosts.

v2.0.1

v2.0.1 introduced a more complex boost system, with each plant having 3 options. Some plants have 2 of the same boosts but with different boost values.

* = Unused in this version, but available in future updates

^ = Plant is no longer in the codes as of the latest release

N/A = This plant does not have any boost data.

Unused Zen Garden watering animations

The single-use plants were originally going to have boosts, thus being available in the Zen Garden. They were probably meant for an early Zen Garden boost system, where plants would gain different types of boosts (see above), such as cool down decrease or increased toughness. Only the plants up to Far Future have these animations. They were later used after the 5.7.1 update when you get all the seed packets to level up the plant. Every single-use plant after Far Future will just have their idle animation reset. The Sprout from the first game was replaced by small plants although has a unique animation when watered.

Unused collectable items

Treasure Chest

An unused item in the form of a chest full of coins. It's worth 10000 coins and strangely has the description of money bag, its official name is simply "10,000 Coins".

Neon Mixtape Tour Note

A note for a Neon Mixtape Tour exists in the game files, even though the world never received one.

Unused Zombie Lunch Box

An unused lunch box variant, may have likely been a regular version of the used yeti lunch box. In pre-1.7, it would provide you with 100 coins and 1 to 3 keys, while the used yeti lunch box provided 1000 coins and 3 keys.

Collectable Powerups

In-game collectable items for Power Pinch, Power Toss, Power Zap and Power Snow exist in the files. This suggests they might have been able to be dropped by zombies at one point.

Unused world themed gravestones and minecarts

Unique sprites for gravestones and minecarts were made for the first four worlds. Ulitmately, only Ancient Egypt ended up with the gravestones and Wild West with the minecarts. It is unknown what their purpose was for, but may have been planned for the scrapped Time Twister world. However, in the Chinese version of Plants vs. Zombies 2, the Far Future minecart and rails are used for an exclusive Brain Buster, All by Oneself, albeit with a different minecart design.

Strangely, gravestones for Big Wave Beach, Frostbite Caves, Lost City, Neon Mixtape Tour and Jurassic Marsh were added in the 5.2.1 update. With the Frostbite Caves and Lost City gravestone sprites being added in the 7.9.1 update. Ultimately, they ended up going unused. Judging by the code, they were likely meant to appear in Penny's Pursuit.

Unused/Early Images

Unused text

  • There are two lines of text suggesting you may have been able to name Penny in an earlier version.
    • [RV_NAME_INVALID] - I didn't quite get that...
    • [RV_NAME_SAME_AS_PLAYER] - That's your name, silly!
  • There is a line on the files about a message, that is shown if the player tries to plant a Tangle Kelp on a Lily Pad and other things related to Lily Pad.
    • [ADVICE_PLANT_TANGLEDKELP_ON_LILYPAD] No planting Tangled Kelp on a Lily Pad.
    • [ADVICE_PLANT_LILYPAD_ON_LILYPAD] Lily pads can't be planted on Lily Pads.
    • [ADVICE_PLANT_MORE_LILYPADS] Try planting more Lily Pads!
    • [ADVICE_PLANT_LILYPADS_ON_WET] Lily Pads can only be planted on wet sand and water.
  • Penny is referenced internally as "Winnie."
  • The following flavor text was scrapped:
    • Starfruit and Marigold used their flavor text from Plants vs. Zombies.
    • Citron: Since he was a young citrus he tried to donate plasma to help out people, but his juices were too acidic. Then he discovered how to donate a different kind of plasma.
    • Laser Bean: Was just a regular bean until a lab accident involving a chemical spill and a radioactive weevil gave him strange powers beyond those of normal beans.
    • Magnifying Grass: Magnifying Grass turns sun into a focused beam of damage. (description header)
    • Tile Turnip: Through great sacrifice comes great Power Tiles. Such is the way of the Tile Turnip.
    • Sun-shroom: With a little more time and effort Sun-shroom know he could do better. He's pretty proud of those big suns he pops out, though he does feel a little bloated.
    • Puff-shroom: Puff-shroom is deeply rooted in the social networking systems. His online favorites are Yeastbook and Funggit, but nothing beats camaraderie of a Lawn Area Network of fellow Puff-shrooms.
    • Fume-shroom: "I think of myself as a pretty confident shroom and an all-around fungi," says Fume-shroom. "But sometimes I hear chuckles, and calls for 'Balloon-shroom'. I don't think they know how much that can hurt my feelings."
    • Sun Bean: Sunbeans infect zombies with sun. As a zombie takes damage they generate sun. (Description header, version 2.2.2)
    • Sun Bean: One of a growing band of bean brothers, Sun Bean thinks Chili is a little crude, Spring is rather lazy, and Laser is a bit far-out. Still he loves them all the same.
    • Pea-nut: Pea-Nut swears that he is hypo-allergenic and safe for use by all manner of lawn defenders. He just wishes people would stop planting him upside down.
    • Magnet-shroom: Magnet-shroom is quite aware of his unconventional appearance, but he doesn't let it bother him. In his heart he knows he's the most attractive shroom around.
    • Adventurer Zombie: Adventurer Zombie was certain he was the first to rediscover the Lost City. He was less certain after he ran into another 50 Adventurer Zombies at the gift shop.
    • Conehead Adventurer: Given the rarity of traffic in the jungle, it's a mystery how Conehead Adventurer managed to acquire his headgear. Maybe he ordered it online?
    • Buckethead Adventurer: Armed with his sturdy kettle and even sturdier moustache, Kettlehead Adventurer is ready to ruin your day and possibly make a stew.
    • Parasol Zombie: Parasol Zombie desperately wants to get to the opera before the curtain rises. She's not going to make it, though, because it's thousands of miles away on another continent.
    • Cold Snapdragon: Cold Snapdragon gets chilly when anyone brings up his cousin Snapdragon. "It happened a long time ago, and I'd really rather not discuss it" he says. Yikes.

Costumes

Several costumes are known to exist in the sprite files, but never appeared. Some of these are used in the Chinese version of Plants vs. Zombies: All Stars. They may appear in future updates.

Scrapped Costumes

The following costume was changed between updates:

The following costume was moved to a different plant between updates:

Unused/Early game features

Endless Zone continue

An unused feature that would allow you to continue if you were to lose. It costs 1000 coins per revival but does not replace your lawn mowers.

Tokens

An energy system that would have been incorporated into the main game. Tokens would generation from the Zen Garden once every 10 minutes, for a maximum of 5. Each level would cost 1 token to play. It oddly uses gems instead, meaning they must have been tied together. This concept would later make it's way into Arena and Penny's Pursuit.

Plant Suggestions

This feature would have suggested alternatives for a highlighted plant.

Sort World Plants to the top

Would have sorted the plants from a world to the top in the seed selection screen.

Sort Promotional Plants to the top

Premium plants that were being promoted at the time would be sorted to the top in the seed selection screen. Premium plants that you already owned would have been sorted to the top behind Bonk Choy, and the first unowned premium plant in the list would be sorted after the owned ones. Hurrikale, Sweet Potato and Sap-fling were in the initial PromoList in v3.3.2, with Homing Thistle later added in v3.4.4. Fire Peashooter is solely in the FeatureList.

Early Renting system

A feature which would allow you to rent a premium plant for 250 coins each. It would later be incorporated in v9.2.2, although differs from this early version.

Try Premium Plants in store

This would have allowed you to try out premium plants directly from the store. Pea-nut, Chomper, Homing Thistle and Hurrikale were included before the feature was scrapped. Epic Quests would later serve a similar purpose.

Group Plants by Family

Would made any plants of the same family be grouped together in the seed selection screen.

Old seed packet designs

Before the Lost City seed packets were created, all world-based seed packets were different than what would be released later on.

Jukebox

There is currently data for a jukebox in the code. It is unknown how it will work or where it can be played. It could possibly provide a way to listen to the game's soundtrack. The code suggests that it can be played in the pause menu and Endless Zones. It also has UI but no sprites. It suggests it has a Song List, Rewind Button, Fast Forward Button, Play Button, Loop Button, and Shuffle Button. It also appears they will have album artwork for every world.
