Plants vs Zombies 2 - Plant of the Week - Winter-Mint - January 2025

50 Winter-Mint seeds are awarded for completing this event consisting of five (5) levels.

Plant of the Week - Winter-Mint - was offered between January 18, 2025 through January 25, 2025.

When planted, Winter-Mint will chill all zombies on the lawn for ten (10) seconds. (12 at level 2, +1 second there after.)
This Mint will boost the WINTER-MINT family of plants for ten (10) seconds. (+1 second per level.)

The Winter-Mint family includes:

• Boingsetta
• Chilly Pepper
• Cold Snapdragon
• Ice Bloom
• Iceberg Lettuce
• Iceweed
• Missile Toe
• Snow Pea
• Winter Melon

This is an under-whelming selection of plants and its Mint falls in that category as well. All these plants already chill zombies and since chill does not stack - meaning a zombie chilled for 8 seconds and has a chill effect for 3 seconds applied will still be chilled for 8 seconds and not be increased to 11 seconds - Winter-Mint's chilling effect is basically useless.

With three (3) Money plants and four (4) Seedium plants, the only plants players can be assured of having is Iceberg Lettuce and Winter Melon. Iceberg Lettuce is a nice trick but does not damage zombies. Winter Melon is an expensive plant and many levels do not last long enough for Winter Melon to play a significant part.

The bottom line is that Winter Melon needs other plants to help it out. We think Winter-Mint should FREEZE zombies. Freezing zombies is a desirable effect and would give players a reason to select Winter-Mint.
