Natasha looked at her plant again when the assignment was given. While she was enjoying the lesson in general, she did seem to have a rather feisty plant to work with. She gave the vine that was once again creeping towards her a whack with her wand.

“I don't like you, and you don't like me. But I want to pass this class, and I'm pretty sure you want to eat, so let's just make the best of this.” She told the plant, but it seemed to have no effect. She could tell right away it needed water, but decided to offer it food first, in hopes of calming it, or at least distracting it. It worked in part, the plant readily accepted a dead chizpurfle.

Natasha used that opportunity to check the soil and found it looked to be in a fairly poor state. She added a small amount of fertiliser, then watered it. Noticing the plant was getting aggressive again, she gave it another dead chizpurfle, and used that time to trim back some dried up vines and leaves. Once she was done, she offered it one last dead chizpurfle, and noticed that the plant did calm down considerably once it was full.

As she wrote out her notes, a vine made its way, unnoticed and bit her glove, forcing her to wrestle with the vine to finally get it back.

Name: Natasha Destler
House: Ravenclaw
Year: first

Plant observation notes:
This plant was very underfed. It enthusiastically ate three dead chizpurfles. I added a small amount of fertiliser and watered the plant as well as gave it a small trim. The vines can be patient and sneaky, or lighting fast, depending on the situation.

P.s. my plant hates me!
