"No, nobody died... it was just an unfortunate incident. Last year the house elves adopted a stray baby elf... and kept this from us. Unfortunately for them the baby elf wasn't so easy to care for, he had a habit of roaming the castle and grounds and collecting items... stealing so to speak. Nevertheless, I had a tin of fire seeds in my research shed. Generally speaking, they were not a hazard, I am very careful with my belongings. The baby elf however broke in and took a liking to the tin, emptying the contents and keeping it for himself. Of course, because the fire seeds are hot, and on fire, it then set the shed on fire also..."
Yes, it was a tragic story. But it could have been worse.
"The baby elf got away unharmed," she added for clarification.
"No more questions?" ... good, they'd had enough time for that. If anybody thought of something they could approach her at the end of class.
"Alright, so you're all aware by now that we will be planting fire seeds today. Before we get to the fun stuff, does anyone want to hazard a guess as to what care requirements we might need to consider when planting these seeds?" she asked, summoning a small cart of medium sized pots from the corner of the greenhouse.
OOC: This is the last question before we start the activity. Please only state ONE care requirement ONLY. Any more than that and I will be a nasty pasty and take points. The lesson will continue in approximately 12 hours XD
NOTE: CARE not SAFETY. Please relate your answers to HOW you would CARE for the seed when planting and the planting process.

Note: Care requirements not Safety requirements (;
Care requirements? Flaming seeds have care requirements?
As the others answered, Cass scribbled down notes, inserting her own two cents into the matter once in a while. Then, finally thinking up of an answer that seemed good enough.
"Make sure that the fire that keeps your plant alive stays lit?" She guessed, she wasn't sure though. All she knew was that fire keeps the thing alive - according to her book, anyway - and if the fire goes out, then she's going to bet that the plant wouldn't last long either.
