This article is non-canon.

This article covers a subject that has been deemed non-canon by either the author or the Harry Potter licensees, and thus should not be taken as a part of the "real" Harry Potter universe.

"I don't think I learned enough in Herbology class to know how to use this flower."
Harry Potter, regarding Floo powder.[src]

Floo is a flowering plant with magical properties. Floo powder is extracted from the flowers of this plant,[1] as devised by a Medieval witch Ignatia Wildsmith.

Behind the scenes

  • On Pottermore, it is revealed that a single company, Floo-Pow, was licenced to make Floo Powder in Britain, and that the composition of its product was a "closely guarded secret" no one had managed to figure out.[2] Thus, this plant must be considered non-canonical, as it is unlikely its existence or practical application would be widely known, much less taught in Herbology class at Hogwarts.
