Was there a Western horror novel that described his father studying plants in the basement for a long time and eventually becoming a plant himself?

It was a best-selling Western horror novel from about eight years ago (when I was in primary school). There were many more in the same series, such as the slide that never ends, the true and false ghosts of Valentine... I only remember the content but not the name, I hope someone can help me remember
The content was as follows:
A daughter's father was once a high-ranking official. He resigned and liked plants. He built a large basement to study plants. The basement had a new type of strange plant that her father had cultivated. Her father had been studying in the basement for a long time, but he was nowhere to be seen. The daughter and her friend broke into the basement to investigate. They were frightened by the strange-shaped plants that could even move and talk. They sneaked in many times and actually found a plant that looked very similar to their father. This plant told her that the father she usually saw outside was not her real father. He was a plant that her father had developed. He had turned into her and trapped her here. At this moment, her father came in from outside. He also told her not to be deceived by this plant. He was a plant that she had created. He was lying. Then, the daughter recognized that the plant was the real father, so she defeated the father outside and saved the real father. The ending was that one day, her daughter found a very small flower on the lawn outside. It spoke! It said that I'm the real father!
