Kurumi looked back at the hanging flowers and then into her bag where all her containers were. She would only take a few seeing as taking them all would only cause deforestation like they had discussed in class with the Stubby Purple Coral. "Thank you," she chirped looking back at Professor Bentley first and then back up at the flowers. "Um...is there a specific way to pick them?" Surely you didn't just stand on your tipy toes and tug...or did you?
Oh Merlin! thought Seren as she watched little Miss Hollingberry jump at the sound of her voice. Whoops.
"Sorry... I didn't mean to startle you", she said taking a few steps closer to the girl and the tree. She starred up at the white trumpet flowers, they brought a smile to her face. So delicate, and intricate... simply stunning.
"Hhmm.. oh, not really. I would suggest cutting them off, that way they will not only last longer and but they will also grow back easier."Seren smiled leaning up she cupped one of the flowers in her hand, using her other hand she took her wand and non-verbally severed the flower from its stem. She smelled its sweet scent... heavenly.
"I trust you have used the severing charm before?" she asked Kurumi, offering her the flower.
