"Mom always said, 'If you leave your trap open like that, you'll catch Zombies.' So I did."

Venus Flytrap is a premium uncommon plant card and a member of the Solar class. She costs 3 to play and has 2/2. She does not have any traits, and her ability heals the plant hero for the equal amount of damage she does. Her closest zombie counterpart is Nurse Gargantuar.

In the mini-boss battle of the mission A Hard Nut to Crack, Wall-Knight starts with a Venus Flytrap and a Wall-Nut on the second lane.

Origins

She is based on the plant in Plants vs. Zombies: All Stars with the same name, but with costume.

Her ability to heal as she damages is based on her All Stars appearance's Plant Food ability, which allows her to deal immense damage to a zombie and heal herself for half the amount of damage dealt.

Her description references how Venus flytraps leave their "mouth" open to eat their prey.

Strategies

With

An effective utilization of Venus Flytrap is pairing her with cards that strengthen her , like Cro-Magnolia (Solar Flare exclusive), Fertilize, or Pea Patch (Chompzilla exclusive). The latter option would work better since it can be played the turn before this card comes out. If you feel exceptionally cheeky, use it with The Red Plant-It for a massive stat boost and heal bonus.

Using Venus Flytrap with Pepper M.D. is also a very effective strategy, as she buffs it continuously for as long as she lives for.

Against

This card won't be as much of a threat as many new players think it is. If your opponent is running it, it's a good sign that they are running a heal deck. If they have a Pepper M.D. on the board, remove it immediately, since this plant will give it +2/+2 continuously.

It is more reliable to remove Venus Flytrap with tricks, like Bungee Plumber or Rolling Stone. Debuffing cards such as Landscaper and Total Eclipse are also effective means of rendering her harmless.
