Abilities
Left abilities
|
Potato Mine
|
Potato Mines force Zombies to look down. If a Zombie sets foot on a Potato Mine, it will explode and they will experience the full force of a "SPUDOW!"
|
Potato Nugget Mine
|
These little nuggets are small, have a great sense of humor and enjoy sitting around waiting to blow Zombies sky high. While not as damaging as their potato cousins, these little nuggets still pack a spudow!
|
Center abilities
|
Garlic Drone
|
By launching her Garlic Drone companion, she can monitor Zombies from the skies, attack them from the air, and call in devastating Corn Strikes.
|
Artichoke Drone
|
The Artichoke Drone has a really thick skin. This gives it more health and helps it last longer in a fight. However, it does not have the same firepower as its Garlic counterpart.
|
Right abilities
|
Tallnut Battlement
|
Tallnut Battlements have many uses. They can be shields and they can block paths to stop the Zombies in their tracks. They're terrible card players, though.
|
Iron Maiden
|
Encased in iron armor, these Iron Maiden Tallnuts will stare at Zombies with an unmatched intensity. They are very hard to destroy and enjoy getting in the way.
|
Strategies
Consider Citrus Cactus to be a Sun Pharaoh with a much longer range. Her weapon fires three consecutive shots in a burst, which can deal much damage if all shots are critical hits. Utilize her damage, combined with the abilities of the Cactus class, and you have a ranged powerhouse who can lock down points on the map as she pleases, along with the firepower to stay there.

Trivia
- She is the second Cactus that does not shoot needles, with the first one being Future Cactus and the third being Petrified Cactus.
- Once you unlock her, you will get all her upgrades without finding them in sticker packs. The same happens with Berry Shooter, Plasma Pea, Chester Chomper, and Dr. Chester.
- However, these upgrades don't actually function.
- She and Berry Shooter are the only plants in the game that shoot fruit rather than peas or needles. Berry Shooter shoots clusters of berries while Citrus Cactus shoots orange wedges.
- She is one of the four characters to be sponsored by a product, with the others being Berry Shooter, Chester Chomper, and Dr. Chester.
- In this case, she is sponsored by Aquafina FlavorSplash flavored drinks.
- In her old description, it said that the Citrus Cactus was male.
- In an unknown update, the description was changed to refer to the Citrus Cactus being a female, most likely to remain consistent with the main class' gender.
- She is the only Cactus variant to have a 3-burst weapon.
- Along with Berry Shooter, Chester Chomper, and Dr. Chester, she does not return in Plants vs. Zombies: Garden Warfare 2 because she is a promotional character.
- Despite her absence in Garden Warfare 2 due to her being a promotional character, her weapon (the Orange Burst), is still in the game's files.
