Gallows-weed

Gallows-weed was a form of plant-life growing somewhere in the swamp-landsThe Adventures of Tom Bombadil and Other Verses from the Red Book, No. 9: "The Mewlips", mentioned only in The Adventures of Tom Bombadil and Other Verses from the Red Book.
In the fictional lore of the Hobbits, gallows-weed grew where Mewlips lurked and birds called Gorcrows flew. Its characteristics are not told, and for few who entered those marshes where gallows-weed grew would ever return.A Guide To Tolkien
