You can use a plant to block his first bandage but the plant will die instantly and Amumu will land his second bandage. Zyra is very weak against hard engage champions but your plants are very powerful in this situation so the matchup only depend if you are ready to smurf your lane !
Alistar
It's supposed to be a big threat but if you keep your root just for him, the matchup is quite easy.
Easy to zone ! don't forget to use your auto-attack as well !
Ashe
Ashe poke is annoying. The best thing is to wait for her to use her .. and start to harass them.
You also can play with bushes to avoid her auto-attack
Blitzcrank
A personal nightmare.
You can block the grab with a plant but the grab is very quick.
To achieve it, you have to put your seed as close to you as possible.
You also have to use your root, so if it's not working, you'r dead.
PERMA BANN
Well if you play against him : stay in your wave and zone him as much as you can, while staying safe.
Bard
Poke him as much as you can to force him to stay in lane.
He's more a threat for your team than for you,, so keep an eye on him.
Braum
Easy to zone.
Harass him with your Auto-attack.
His Q is quite slow and predictable so try to block it with a plant.
Brand
He outrange you but, with your plants, your poke is more consistant.
If you play with bushes you can bait his colun easily.
Fiddlesticks
Galio
Heimerdinger
Janna
Karma
Leona
Lulu
The shield can be annoying, her R aswell but she is very easy to zone.
Try to get 6 before her.
Lux
Lux outrange Zyra.
Her burst is stronger and she is not easy to zone.
But her spells are quite predictable.
It's a skill diff lane.
Milio
Morgana
Maokai
Nami
The heal reduces Zyra's work but she is quite easy to kill so she's not a big threat. Against enchanter my tips is to bully them as much as possible. Even if you don't kill them, forcing them to back is enough to win a level advantage.

Xerath
Xerath outrange you, he has more damage and his cd are quite low.
It's an exciting matchup ! See it as a test of your skill as a player. Never under estimate a Xerath but be better and anhilate him !
Yuumi
It's a temper diff ! Stay calm and keep your cold head.
The real strengh of Yuumi it's her ability to tilt you just by existing.
Keep calm and poke. If you catch the adc, you kill both.
Zilean
Not a big threat. Dodge his bombes and zone him a much as you can ! Try to get 6 first
Cho'Gath
Easy to zone and predict. The only thing to focus on is dodging his knock-up. Dominic embrace is a go to !
