Funnily enough, the book had been a gift from her father and had given it to her with the disclaimer of it being their little secret. "I love those books!" But now wasn't the time to discuss literature. Perhaps at a later date?

Shaking her head to try and remove the desire to discuss books, Kurumi focused more on what Simon had suggested. "That is assuming that all talking animals know everything there is to know about plants. We are witches and wizards, but we don't know about every single form of magic," she said gently. "Perhaps we could ask Professor MacFusty is Lady Rosamund would be able to help. She is brilliant."

Kurumi giggled and had to cover her mouth to soften the sounds when she heard his next suggestion. "Just make up our own names for flowers and create our on set of Herbology guidelines?" She wasn't even going to write that one down, but it was hilarious. "While I am not sure I like the idea of digging up a plant after it has already been planted, it might be a good idea to place a Permanent Sticking Charm on the seed or bulb or something else in the before planting. You could use Accio label when you were unsure of what you were planted and then banish it back into the ground after."

SPOILER!!: zee parchyment

Simon looked at the Parchment and smiled. "I can't think of anything else Kurumi." And then she asked a Question. "Yes I do, I read a lot I've got a big Library at hom." Simon was speaking truthfully there. "I have some very old books."

Simon stared at Kurumi. "Want to talk about books after class?" Simon didn't know if she would but he might as well ask. "And if you can't think of anything else I think we have finished so what do we do then." Simon hadn't really paid attention to Professor Bentley.

SPOILER!!: zee parchyment *Herbology III - Identifying Plants (pair activity)* *Kurumi Hollingberry // Gryffindor // & Simon Leonarder De Simpson III // Hufflepuff //* What do we look at when we identify plants? Leaf shape Size – height, width etc. Spikes, thorns, fangs etc. Colour – plant, petals etc. Movement Reproductive structure Flower shape – bell, plate, cup etc. Plant properties Nuts/berries – shape, size, colour etc. Bark – colour, shape, texture etc. Root System – size, colour, level of exposure etc. Cautions Biochemical secretions – oil, pus, sap, spores etc. Stings Poisons Animals/insects Bites – fangs and teeth Grabby – vines, pincers etc. Flammable Explosive Jumpy Omnivorous *How to identify a plant without looking at its physical characteristics* taste the plant (only in tiny amounts) feel the plant for its shape and texture play music to the plant and see how it reacts smell it listen to the plant - how the wind blows through its leaves and what not find someone who can identify it for you check soil surrounding the plant hire someone from the Department of Environmental Protection team of Gardners to tell us what the plants are before planting them seek the help of Lady Rosamund!
