Ah, the Greenhouses. Arguably the Headmistress' favorite area of the castle and grounds, the greenhouses at the start of the year shine and sparkle, clean and pristine. Five identical large buildings are situated on the Hogwarts grounds and during your time at Hogwarts you may have had class in every one - with the exception of Greenhouse Five. Five is now locked and has again been transformed into Headmistress Truebridge's personal garden and experimentation area. You will most likely never see the contents of that greenhouse, nor can you even peek inside past those magically pink tinted windows! Unless, of course, you dare to ask her permission to go inside.

Greenhouses one through three, however, are currently open to student aid and experimentation. If you're careful and confident, you can feel free to tend to the Venemous Tentaculas in Greenhouse Three or engage in a playful tug-of-war with the Devil's Snare in the Greenhouse Two. If you traipse through each greenhouse, you will identify almost every sort of magical plant that has ever been taught at Hogwarts. Bubotubers, puffapods, fanged geraniums, biting toadstools, flesh-eating shrubs, and so on..... and that's not even mentioning the assortment of Muggle flowers in Greenhouse One!

Each greenhouse has shelves for pots, as well as racks of tools and any other necessities you may need in the large corner cabinets. There's plenty of lab tables for setting up your own tinkering station, and sinks to clean up in too. Don't forget to add to the compost pile behind the greenhouses when you're done with your trimming!

OOC: Here's a basic guide of what you might find in each greenhouse; please remember to play realistically based on your character's age and skill level!
