 Slytherin by heart
As they worked, he planted his own seed, taking very deliberate care with it. Once he was done, he watched the other students as they planted their seeds. Celestina really seemed to be the impatient type. He shook his head, chuckling. It reminded him of the reason Slade always called him in to work on the herbology assignments. The man just didn't have the patience for it.
"Alright, you all seem to be done, or mostly done. Now, let's start with a simple spell, vitaris. This spell is meant to speed up the growth of the plant. Gently. Now, watch carefully, please."
He tapped the side of the pot three times. "Vitaris!" He tucked his wand away. "Be patient, please. Do not forget that there are many processes to sprouting before one will even see the plant." By the time he'd finished speaking, a small sprout had begun to poke through the soil. Then, before their very eyes, it turned to two leaves, and continued upward, leaves sprouting out.
"Take care with this spell, and be gentle with it. You do not want to rush the plant too much. Get it to this stage, and this stage only. This means concentrate on exactly that as you cast the spell."
