"We'll be repotting Mandrakes today. Now, who can tell me the properties of the Mandrake?"
— Professor Sprout teaching second-years about Mandrakes in Greenhouse Three[src]

Greenhouse Three was where Herbology classes were taught to every student, except first-years, because it was used to house several spices of magical plants that were deemed too dangerous for them to handle.[1]

Hogwarts Greenhouse HBPF

Greenhouse Three in the 1996–1997 school year

Greenhouse Three had more dangerous species, such as the Venomous Tentacula, as it was for the advanced students.[1] With hazardous plants in maintenance, first year students instead took the class in Greenhouse One, which had no dangerous material.[2]

The greenhouse had four areas. The first area, the most well-known to students out of the four, was the Herbology Classroom, consisting of a square-shaped room, with some tables for students and one Venomous Tentacula.

The second was the Flora Faction, containing all kind of flowers and several mandrakes. The third was the Evergreen Environment, an area with a lot of evergreen trees. The fourth area was the Vine Vicinity, the largest area which had lots of mandrakes, slugs and flora.[3]

History[]

In the 1992–1993 school year, Pomona Sprout taught her second year students how to pot young Mandrakes.in this greenhouse[1] Later, Pomona Sprout and eventually Neville Longbottom taught advanced Herbology here.
