Venomous Tentacula

The Venomous Tentacula is a green, spikey, toothsome plant with mobile vines that try to grab living prey. A similarly mobile plant is Devil's Snare. Venomous Tentacula expels venom from its shoots, and its spikes are poisonous. Its bite is highly poisonous.

This dangerous plant was used for student research in Herbology classes at Hogwarts. Students were permitted to swear loudly if a Tentacula tried to strangle them during lessons.

Venomous Tentacula seeds are Class C non-tradeable items. Fred and George Weasley purchased Tentacula seeds off Mundungus Fletcher in 1995 for their Weasleys' Wizard Wheezes products.

During the Battle of Hogwarts, Neville Longbottom used Venomous Tentaculas as a weapon against invading Death Eaters.
