Harry Potter, Ron Weasley, and Hermione Granger dealing with the Snargaluff plant in sixth year Herbology class[src]

The Snargaluff is a plant with the appearance of a gnarled stump, but hides dangerous thorn-covered vines that attack when provoked and is usually best handled by more than one person. It contains green pulsating pods about the size of a grapefruit which can be extracted. These are then broken open and the contents, which resemble pale green tubers, collected in bowls. Sixth year Herbology students learn to extract these pods. They are best when fresh.[1] The Lovegood family had some of these plants in their garden in front of their house.

During the Battle of Hogwarts, Professor Sprout and other students of Hogwarts used Snargaluff pods as weapons against the attacking Death Eaters.
