"Nazgûl" (in the vulgar tongue), or "Ringwraith" (in the rustic tongue), or "Úlairi" (in the noble tongue), is a small white flowering plant that grows in the reigons in and around Minas Morgul. It has no virtue that is know of. But it gives off a sickening, charnel-smell which fills the air with an odour of rotteness, and some have found it handy for warding off annoying relations. Master Samwise Gamgee brought some home from his travels, and marketed it to many eager Hobbits, most notably those related to the Bracegirdles.

It is remembered in this bit of doggerel:

When the confounded relatives come,
And they act really dumb,
And they chatter like a deranged seagull,
Come Nazgûl! Come Nazgûl!
Stinky and dying,
Gets rid of the prying.

Assuming that Sam was not the only one to bring something home to make a profit off of, what did Frodo, Merry and Pippin bring home?
