Hogwarts RPG Name:
Penny Laughgood
Second Year |  Hufflepuff where they are just and loyal they are patient, true and unafraid of toil
Penny walked into the Student garden, intent on finding a nice place for her plant for herbology homework.....
Penny had decided to plant Knotgrass seeds, because firstly it was a very magical plant and also it had healing properties (having once read that just touching the leaf of knotgrass could heal up a cut and bring the skin back with in two or three hours.... and the leaves help cure sicknessess and illnessess.)
Walking around the many plants and flowers, she spotted a place that would house the plant...noting that she had to plant the knotgrass seeds in full sun and moist, well-drained soils. And reading her textbook, growth will begin in early March and will last until winter's first frost.
Removing her gloves form her bag and putting them on... she took a small shovel from her bag and began to dig a drill a half inch deep and a foot long...clearing the planting area of a few weeds...
Taking the seeds she scattered them into the drill... and covered them up again with the soil... Patting the soil down firmly, she scattered some dragon dung on top of the bed of seeds... marking it with a tag..
