2025 Hallmark Harry Potter Ornament

QXI8422

This 2025 Hallmark Keepsake Ornament features a Mandrake plant in a pot, from Warner Brothers' "Harry Potter" franchise. The bulbous, human-shaped plant has historically been associated with magic but was traditionally used as anesthetic for surgeries, due to it's potent sedative properties. In the Harry Potter movies, Mandrakes (aka Mandragora) are sentient, with roots resembling human babies that mature as they grow. Handling them requires earmuffs, bas their scream will cause hours of unconsciousness when young, and are fatal if heard by humans, when fully grown. They were used in a potion to cure paralysis caused by petrification after the Basilisk attacks in "Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets." Magic Sound is activated to hear it scream, when batteries are installed and you attempt to pull the plant from the pot! The ornament can stand on it's own, or be hung from the display hook at the top, and is dated on the underside of the base.
