Nymphs[]

Piper mentions from the entry on Nymphs that only certain types of magical beings can be turned into Nymphs. The entry itself is never seen and the content is thus unknown.

Spells[]

5x19NymphLocate

Piper and Phoebe are Teleported to the forest.

To Locate Nymphs' Home[]

Paige was working on a Spell to locate the Nymphs' home, based on combining the four elements: water, wind, earth and fire. However, because the Nymphs were on TV, she never finished it. But later, Piper and Phoebe finished it to find Paige. It teleported them to the forest where the Eternal Spring was. The Spell itself is never seen casting and thus unknown.

To Turn an Immortal Demon Into a Tree[]

5x19SpellTree

Tull is transformed into a tree.

When Tull drank from the Eternal Spring, he became invincible and immortal. As a Vanquishing Spell wouldn't work, Paige suggested that they could cast a Spell to turn Tull into something else immortal, like a tree. She then improvised the first part of the Spell, and Piper continued to finish it.
