...wait. Wait. WAIT. WAAAAAAAAAIT!

Had she just heard Professor Myers correctly? The seventh year's blue eyes instinctively shot around the classroom in search of Brian. THIS WAS WHAT THEY DID! Neville and Flick were products of their experimentation in this VERY field. ONLY NOW THEY COULD PERFORM EXPERIMENTAL CROSS BREEDING WITH AN INCREDIBLY COMPLEX SPECIES OF FLORA. CRAZY UNPREDICTABLE GLORIOUS CROSS BREEDING!

The Hufflepuff's face was far too small for the eager grin that had spread across her features and the bouncing she had been performing earlier in the lesson was nothing but a warm up to the dance she was displaying at present. This was...wow...she couldn't just pick any plant to go with floor flowers. She needed to weigh her options carefully...methodically...was it enough to just use one of her favorite plants for this assignment? That would leave her with either sunflowers or dittany...which both had their appeal.

BUT WAIT AGAIN. There were...two species of magical flora they had been working with today...surely that meant that she could pick ~~at least~~ two plants of her own to attempt the cross breeding process with...yes? Four would be best, so she could pick two mundane and two magical per ash pollination plant...

Getting out a piece of parchment, Paige decided to take the push the limits a little - she couldn't help it, her eager curiosity was getting the better of her - and scribbled down her first two thoughts as she wandered about the greenhouse some more to clear her head and draw inspiration from the appearance both floo flowers and fire roses...but then Brian's voice was echoing in her head about the quality of her experimentation. Yes, the flowers had their similar properties but NOT the same genetic make up - really, she was sounding more intelligent in her thoughts than she really was - so she ought to stick with just two...

But then she got to thinking about dittany as a choice and began second guessing herself. Yes, it was her favorite with its healing properties...but another magical plant came to mind. One that she had a more clear visual as to a possible product of the cross breeding with these flowers - particularly floo flowers....

FLOO FLOWERS & FIRE ROSES CROSS BREEDING EXPERIMENTATION SELECTIONS
magical: puffpod ~~and maybe also dittany because I struggled with picking between the two~~
mundane: sunflower

Biting her lip as she wrote, Paige scribbled down her choices. Satisfied, for now, she scampered back to over to Professor Myers and slipped him her parchment.
