Flitterbloom

" ... it was not an innocent Flitterbloom, but a cutting of Devil's Snare which, when touched by the convalescent Mr Bode, throttled him instantly."
-- The Daily Prophet (OP25)

This plant apparently superficially resembles Devil’s Snare in appearance, but is non-violent.

  • St. Mungo's healer Miriam Strout mistook the Devil's Snare that killed Broderick Bode for a Flitterbloom (OP22, OP25).
  • Mentioned in the radio program Toots, Shoots 'n' Roots (JKR).
