Mulpepper

Mr. Mulpepper was a wizard who owned Mr. Mulpepper's Apothecary. In 1992, he sold Harry Potter a Potion bottle for eight sickles. He also sold Harry and Ginny Weasley two potion kits for the price of five sickles each.

Behind the scenes

 * 'Mulpepper' seems to be a reference to Nicholas Culpeper, an English botanist and pharmacologist who was accused of witchcraft after angering his fellow physicians by condemning their greed and their use of harmful practices such as toxic remedies and bloodletting. A revolutionary, Culpeper was able to provide his services for free. This, and a willingness to examine patients in person rather than simply examining their urine (in his opinion, "as much piss as the Thames might hold" did not help in diagnosis) created an affray between him and the Society of Apothecaries, who were similarly incensed by the fact that he suggested cheap herbal remedies as opposed to their expensive concoctions.
