Ah yes, Tapio was always expecting something like this when they worked with flowers. Unfortunately, sometimes, in order to make use of a plant, one had to take its blooms, or fruits, or leaves or roots. And many plants bloomed and died afterwards on their own. Fortunately, he could give a better answer to Aurora. "Yes, actually, in the case of lavender, they usually do grow back after pruning, although that's usually best to do in the spring. Best not to take all of them, though." As much as Tapio loved all plants, he didn't get too sentimental about losing them, either--it was all part of the cycle of life.

[OOC: Still one more day for this part of the class. I'll move it along tomorrow evening.]
