"Is this all real? Or has this been happening inside my head?"
The topic of this article is of a real-life subject that has been mentioned "in-universe" in a canon source. The Harry Potter Wiki is written from the perspective that all information presented in canon is true (e.g., Hogwarts really existed), and, as such, details contained in this article may differ from real world facts. |
- " Urtica dioica, the stinging nettle. Useful in potions, delicious in soups, and said to give you glossy hair. I wouldn't know. Or care."
- — Zygmunt Budge, Book of Potions[src]
The nettle, also known as the stinging nettle (Urtica diocia) or burn hazel,[1] is a widespread plant known for the stinging hairs that grows on its leaves.[4]
Uses
Nettles were used in potion-making:[4] dried nettles were used in the Boil-Cure Potion[5] and the Hair-Dying Potion.[6] Nettles were presumably the main ingredients of beverages like nettle wine and nettle tea. Nettles could also be made into a soup, and were rumoured to improve the glossiness of one's hair.[1]
History
Nettles surrounded the Gaunt shack in 1926.[2]
- "All right, class, today we will learn to grow Nettles. Now, wipe those prickly expressions off your faces. This will be fun! I have prepared a lecture on the proper way to grow Nettles. Eyes on me, please."

Some dried Nettles
During the 1984–1985 school year at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, whilst trying to persuade Professor Severus Snape to attend Rubeus Hagrid's suprise birthday party in 1984 by gifting him potion ingredients, Jacob's sibling found dried nettles in the Artefact Room at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry with help from Ben Copper and Penny Haywood.[7] Professor Pomona Sprout taught third-year students in Herbology how to grow Nettles in the 1986–1987 school year at Hogwarts.[3]
Behind the scenes
- Nettle may refer to several species of plants of the genus Urtica in the Urticaceae family, though Wonderbook: Book of Potions explicitly identifies the variety used in potion-making as Urtica dioica. Historically, healing properties were attributed to nettle, and it was included in the Nine Herbs Charm of the Anglo-Saxons.[8]
