Edelweiss (PvZ2R)

Not to be confused with Cofee BAM!'s Edelweiss.

Edelweiss is the first plant obtained in Viennese Classics in Plants vs. Zombies 2. It freezes a zombie into an ice block, similar to the ones from Frostbite Caves. Despite this  Hot Potato will remain disabled, even after choosing it, and warming plants can't warm it on other worlds.

Origins
 Edelweiss is based on the plant Leontopodium alpinum, also known as edelweiss in English.

Almanac entry
Sun cost: 175

AREA: Single RANGE: Touch RECHARGE: Mediocre

Edelweisses freeze zombies into an ice block.

Usage: single use, on contact Special: Uses petals to freeze a zombie into a block.

Edelweiss is a shy guy with bad puns. How bad are they, you ask? Well, they are REALLY bad. When he does his bad puns, he likes it, but hates it when others do. Well, "edel"-do...

Plant Food upgrade
When fed, Edelweiss will freeze zombies six tiles infront of it and release freezing winds that will slow zombies in it's 5x3 range. Zombies that are on the same tile will be on the same ice block.

Strategies
Although at a higher cost, Edelweiss serves as a direct upgrade and superior to Iceberg Lettuce, as compared to it's temporary freezing, Edelweiss' freezing will last until the ice block is broken or melted.

The fact that zombies will be stacked in it's Plant Food ability will also make it useful in   Endless Zones.
