Which were still rather fun.
"Now, you all need your dragon hide gloves, if for some silly reason you don't have yours on your person, you may borrow some from the stores cupboard," she said indicating to the wooden structure next to them by the door.
"Once you have them on, follow me. Bring your wands with you... though you won't need them."
And with that, she led them a little further into the greenhouse where the work stations were set up.
"Come along," she called behind her.
Ariana smiled, excited for the
fun part of Herbology to begin. Not that she didn't love just answering questions, but that could be saved for History of Magic and Arithmancy. What Herbology was all about was getting dirt everywhere and avoiding the Venomous Tentacula.
She took her pair of neatly folded dragon-hide gloves out of her back. They were brand new and shiny, as she'd lost the ones she used up until third year and decided to get herself a new pair. Ariana slipped them on, and put her wand in her pocket so that it stayed out of the way, since she apparently wouldn't need it. She then followed the professor to the work stations closer to the back of the greenhouse.
