== [[Literature]] ==
* In the [[Ars Magica]] roleplaying game, a hedge wizard is any mage not of the Order of Hermes, who claims the largest monopoly on power.
* In [[Terry Pratchett]]'s [[Discworld]] series of novels, the term 'hedge wizard' is used to describe a wizard who specializes in the magical properties of plants. Although this does fit with the idea of a more rural wizard, given Pratchett's humorous proclivities it is likely here to be a deliberate pun on the word 'hedge'. For example, a character says: "''If you invited a hedge wizard to a party he'd spend half the evening talking to your potted plant...and he'd spend the other half listening to it.''"
