Diffindo is good for when your taking cuttings, or you need to sever particularly thick branches, but for smaller, more intricate tasks we use the Trimming charm. Before we get started on the actual bush however I would like you each to practice the incantation and the wand movement... separately at first and then together.”
With another swish of her wand Seren produced a number of severed tree branches on the table.
“The incantation is flipnsnipwitit.... flip-n-snip-wit-it, as for the wand movement all you’re required to do is swish your wand wherever you wish to trim your plant.” Seren demonstrated by swishing her wand back and forth briskly.
“So remember, first practice the incantation... then the wand movement, separately.”
“Then take one and practice trimming back the leaves.”
Simon looked at the Professor. "Well if it doesn't get enough water then the plant can't grow and can get the water it needs to keep going and so it just dies." Simon had no idea if it was right or not.
Simon smiled as he took out his wand and started practicing the wand movement but he didn't have the grib that he thought it did and so when he practice the wand movement for the fifth time it some how left his hand and when flying into the air and straight passed the Professor hitting the board at the front of the class. "Professor I'm sorry I don't know what happened." Simon said truthfully. "Oh and can I have my wand back please?"
