Yep, you're correct. Haemophilus roughly translates from Latin meaning 'blood loving'. Taken from the Haemophilus species of bacteria which is pathogenic, particularly H. influenzae.
For trivia, I use the name Haemophilus as a bit of a throwback/salute to my even nerdier past. Back before I worked in Games.
Edit - Just saw your comment saying you work on bacteria too. *aseptic high five!*
I'm not as concerned with how the plant works as I am with how to pronounce it. According to the gentleman in the video, we are all mangling its name. The proper pronunciation is: GOOM NEWT. Please make note of this for future reference.
And on to the other tangent. I assumed Haem's name was a reference to hemophilia - the bleeding disease caused by lack of a clotting factor in the blood.
Got you level 5 Gumnut!
That's all gumnut seeds collected for this season.
I'm actuallly using Gumnut in levels where you need to acquired a certain amount of sun
Gum up a zombie and remover all damage dealersin that lane, the zombies take a looong time chewing, even if a garg is bashing the gum
I like gumnut a little more as when he's boosted by reinforcemint he blows gum at the zombies.
