How to get a Mandrake in Hogwarts Legacy

Before finding and buying your Mandrake, make sure you have enough gold to make your purchase, and ensure you know where to go. That way, it will be easier for you to navigate the store to purchase magical plants.

In getting a Mandrake, you have two options. First, you can head to Dogweed and Deathcap. This is a plants and seeds store in the northern side of Hogsmeade. You'll be able to buy Mandrakes there for 500 gold. So, make sure you have enough gold before heading there.

Another option is to buy Mandrake seeds and grow your own Mandrakes. You'll be able to plant and grow your Mandrakes in any pot size in the Room of Requirement. Though make sure you've unlocked the ability to conjure potting tables there before you get to planting.

By doing either of these methods and with a bit of patience, you'll be able to have your own Mandrakes in no time. Make certain you use your Mandrake supply wisely for your potions!
