will prevent the player from obtaining Red and Green Herbs  with its vines. In the 1996 original game, its role is to guard the Armor Key on the other side of the fountain; in the Director's Cut arrange mode it instead guards the Sun Crest. In the 2002 remake, it  guards one of the Death Masks.

To obtained the Death Masks or the Armor Key safely, a chemical is needed to kill the Monster Plant. The chemical can be obtained from the Outdoor area for Remake, or West storeroom in the original Resident Evil. In the original Resident Evil, the chemical simply has to be placed in the pump, immediately killing the plant. However, in Remake, there are two ways to use the pump. Pressing green will distribute the herbicide to the green herbs, rendering them useless. Selecting red will pump at the center of the fountain, killing the fountain plant.
