Tulipush

Tulipushes are manually-activated, lane-diverting flower plants that push zombies farther up and down.

Overview
Tulipush affects the tile above it and the tile below it. When Tulipush is tapped, it will knock any zombies in either of these tiles farther up or farther down, depending on where they were. Tulipush does not have a cooldown.

Zombies pushed against any borders (i.e. zombies currently in the uppermost and lowermost rows) will suffer from 5 points of damage.

Some zombies cannot be pushed, and some zombies will actually harm the Tulipush when interacted with. Gargantuars and the larger robots are too heavy to push, along with Zombie Kings. If Tulipush attempts to divert an Explorer Zombie, then it will be burnt. Jester Zombies will start spinning, which entangles Tulipush's arm around it and sends it flying to a new tile.

Tulipush is based off of the tulip flower. Its name is a portmanteau of "tulip" and "push."

Plant Food Ability
Under the effects of Plant Food, Tulipush will extend its arms and start rapidly flailing. This sends random amounts of zombies flying back a random amount of spaces.

Strategies
Due to being unable to do anything to zombies in front of it, planting a wall or Garlic in front of a Tulipush is a good idea. It is especially true with a Garlic, because if the Tulipush is in center row, then every zombie will be directed to either to the top or bottom rows, so you'll be able to prioritize fire there.

Like most other lane-diverting plants, Electric Currant also works efficiently with Tulipush. The same applies with Spikeweed, Spikerock, and Endurian.

Tulipush vs. Garlic
While Garlic is a defensive plant that moves zombies to tiles above and below it via biting, Tulipush diverts zombies that are already in the lanes above and below it, and it is also not defensive.
