It's a fine, sunny, crisp autumn afternoon on the grounds at Hogwarts. Greenhouse No. Five is the smaller one usually reserved for student projects and special experiments and plantings for N.E.W.T. herbology students and Professor Tapio, himself. Today, however, it's been open to everyone--everyone who is taking Herbology class today, that is.
Inside, any projects and plants have been moved off to the dimly perimeter of the room, and out in the middle the classroom is setup with tables and stools, enough to seat up to 3 or 4 people per table, but also with enough room for a few to work alone, if they choose. Up on one side, in front of the desks, are three tables, each containing plants, Professor Tapio's ever-present whiteboard, and a cupboard containing--well, it's closed right now, but I expect you'll find out what's inside soon enough.
Written on the whiteboard is a message:
Quote:
Pick a plant that beckons to you or appeals to you in some way, then take it to a table and seat of your choice. Class will begin shortly.
The three tables each have a little sign, magically stuck to the front ends, with the numbers
1,
2, and
3. The plants on each one look like this:
Table 1 Table 2 Table 3
Standing near the whiteboard, or rather looming over it a bit, is Professor Tapio himself, ready to greet you and answer any questions you might have before class gets started.
