| | |  The Greenhouses
The once somewhat dirty, dusty, and dusky greenhouses now shine and sparkle, clean and pristine. Five of the large buildings are situated on the Hogwarts grounds and during your time at Hogwarts you may have class in every one - with the exception of Greenhouse Five. Five is locked and has been transformed into Professor Bunbury's personal garden and experimentation area. You will most likely never see the contents of that greenhouse, nor can you even peek inside past those magically pink tinted windows!
Greenhouses one through three, however, are currently open to student aid and experimentation - with your professor's supervision, of course. Feel free to tend to the Venemous Tentaculas in Greenhouse Three and watch out for the Devil's Snare in the Greenhouse Two!
If you traipse through each greenhouse, you will identify almost every sort of magical plant that has ever been taught at Hogwarts. Bubotubers, puffapods, fanged geraniums.....and that's not even mentioning the assortment of Muggle flowers in Greenhouse One! Your professor keeps Greenhouse Five locked right now as it contains her collection of plants from around the world - no doubt an interesting subject you may wish to explore if you have a green thumb. Greenhouse Five is may be opened later in the term for more advanced students, if Bunbury feels you have the aptitude...
Each greenhouse has shelves and racks of tools and large cabinets in the corner containing any other necessities you may need. There's plenty of lab tables for setting up your own tinkering station and sinks to clean up in too. Don't forget to add to the compost pile behind the greenhouses, and help yourself to some fertilizer while you're back there! ooc: here's a basic guide of what you might find in each greenhouse; please remember to play realistically based on your character's age and skill level Current Listing of Plants Available to Student Care/Experimentation
Greenhouse One: the basics- Any and all mundane flowers
- Bouncing Bulbs
- Fanged Geraniums
- Flutterbies
- Honking Daffodils
- Puffapods
Greenhouse Two: plants commonly used in potion-making- Abyssinian Shrivelfigs

- Chinese Chomping Cabbage
- Gurdyroot
- Various Mundane Herbs & Fungi
Greenhouse Three: for upperclassmen to learn- Mandrakes

- Screechsnap
- A few
 saplings in one back corner
Greenhouse Four: they hunger for you- Devil's Snare
- Flitterbloom

- Venemous Tentacula
- Numerous Mundane "Carnivorous" Plants/Vines

Oh, I'm gonna die, I'm gonna die, I'm gonna die, Rafe thought. He didn't like the assignment for Care of Magical Creatures, but at the same time he needed the grade. He didn't want to fail. But, he thought he would make up for it by giving her shoes as well. Professor Bunbury seemed to have a thing for shoes. He wrote his mum asking his mum to send him a pair of shoes a girl might like... She sent him. Mowhoawhoa Blanks or something. He sat the box filled with mooncalf dung and then sat the pink shoes on top of the box. On top he left a note on top in pink ink:
Quote: Dear Professor Bunbury--
Please enjoy this lovely gift, may it bring you happiness. You are the best Herbology teacher I know! Perhaps you can use what's inside the box as fertilizer for your plants?
To a professor pretty and true,
Who has the best taste when it comes to shoes.
I hope these are just the right size,
I see why you capture the heart of guys.
Please take these shoes and where then with delight,
I hope it makes up for what's in the box alright.
I better get top marks for this kind of work,
Cause I would hate to cause any damage or make you go berserk!
Thanks so much for your wonderful class today,
I feel like I've learned a lot, that's all I have to say.
--Rafe Lycaon Rafe felt incredibly guilty and his writing was really scribbly and barely legible. The assignment didn't say he couldn't be nice about it. The last thing he would want to send Professor Bubury was poo. Rafe hid behind a large pot of Abyssinian Shrivelfigs, hiding and making sure Professor Bunbury found her "gift."

"Poo, poo, good for the plants," Plymouth hummmed/sang as he entered the greenhouses. In his arms was a load of POO to deliver to Chris the Prefect. "CHRIS. I have YOUR POOP," Plymouth announced.
Plymouth had a private giggle at imagining Daphne's face after hearing him make that announcement. Hehehe...
"You around, man?" Plymouth put the poo on one of the tables and went to rummage around for some earmuffs. Plymouth had no plans of dying today repotting mandrakes, cute little baby things that they were. | |

He saw that Plymouth had arrived with some fertilizer. "Oh hey Plym whats up? Did Professor Bunbury send you hear with some poo to help?" he smiled.
He then added as he saw the Ravenclaw get a pari of earmuffs. "Yeah you definately want those." he laughed.

"Mmmhmmm," Plymouth confirmed Mr. Prefect's suspicions. He rummaged through the ear muffs until he found the pink fluffy hair. Manly they were not, but they were the most comfortable pair. Fuzzy, you know?
And pink.
"She said to use the BIG pots. You got those?" Plymouth sat the muffs on top of his head until they got ready to use them. | |

Chris's brow furrowed as he looked up to see Plym with the pink fuzzy earmuffs on. He shook his head and then blinked agiain. Not his problem, they must be comfortable. Instead he turned his attention to rounding up the big pots that Bunbury had infact told him about. "Um they are around here somewhere...Ah here they are!" he said grabbing one large pot and pulling out his wand with the other hand. "Wingardium Leviosa." the rest then leviated to the table top.

Plymouth's own eyebrows rose when Chris levitated the pots. Then he shrugged. "Alrighty. So... you know how to do this, right? Be gentle, but watch your fingers? Tickle their bellybuttons? Plant them deep?" Aye? Plymouth held his earmuffs out over his ears, waiting for confirmation from the younger Prefect before getting started. | |

Chris listened to Plym as he reminded him of the proper technique for replanting Mandrakes. He knew how to do it, but you could never be too careful. He smiled and nodded when the Ravenclaw was finished speaking. "I got it! So you ready?" he asked with a grin as he made sure both sides of his earmuffs were pushed down tight.
He grasped the bottom of the stem, just were the plant was sticking out of the dirt

Plymouth popped his earmuffs on and gave a nod, too. "We should learn sign language," Plymouth said... well, to Chris, but Plymouth had no idea how good of a lip reader the dude was. "Because then, we could communicate. But either way, I'll just keep talking like you can hear me. Shall I sing you a song while we work?" Plymouth moved over to stand shoulder to shoulder with Chris and readied a pot for Chris to transfer the mandrake into.
"The ants came marching one by one... Hurrah! Hurrah!" Plymouth sang/hum as they worked. | |

I have Professor Bunbury's girft from Care of Magical Creatures class." he pulled out the silver Mooncalf dung and sat it on a nearby table with a bright pink ribbon on it saying: "The reason I think you deserve this poo,
is for all the wonderful things you do.
You give us great lessons,
you love you plant specimens.
And you can be smart and beautiful too!"
That was in no way supposed to be romantic. Just nice and complementary. "Thanks." Chris said when the pot was moved over for him. He then moved one over next to the Madrake across the table for Plym. "There you go." he added. "A Song great! Ok ready? Earmuffs on?" he checked to see that Plym had his on and then gave him a thumbs up to show that he had his on. And he pulled!
