"It's a Sanguinem Ore. I read about them in my herbology textbook, it's pretty interesting." Helga said. "They're really rare."
The herbology teacher looked at the class, "Can anyone tell me what this plant is?" She asked. Helga quickly raised her hand and recited what she had told Chloe. "Yes, right you are. Five points to Ravenclaw." She said gladly.
"The Sanguinem Ore, also known as the Blood Mouth, is a distant relative of the Venus Flytrap. It doesn't eat bugs, it usually eats small rodents and reptiles. It secretes sanitas lacrimas, which can be used to quickly heal wounds and stop infections. You get it by taking it out of the soil and placing it's roots, still intact, in a container so the sanitas lacrimas, which is used by the Blood Mouth to make the soil around it moist and more 'nutritious', can drain into the container. The Blood Mouth is constantly making the liquid, so you mustn't worry about drying it out."
Helga stared, that was a lot of information to take in and remember. She took a piece of paper out and quickly wrote notes.
"So today, as you've probably guessed, we'll be collecting the sanitas lacrimas from the Blood Mouth. The Blood Mouth doesn't actually bite, but it has a large spike inside of it's mouth so avoid setting it off around your hand or arm."
