Oh right...gloves.
He slipped them on before he got much further along in the process. Benny was managing well enough to get the ivy to wrap around the lavender stalks, the latter serving as a living topiary form like he had planned in his write up. He just hoped that it worked out well in the long run and didn't fail once things began to grow more or he started pruning his work. The ivy certainly seemed light enough not to bend the sturdier purple plants.
When he was satisfied for the moment with the started arrangement, the Gryffindor briefly glanced around to see what the others were doing. Various forms of pruning it seemed and Ben thought back to what he knew on the subject matter, what they had been taught before. Now what was that spell they used? Snipit...flipwit... Flitsnap
Flipnsnipwitit!
That was it, the second year remembering it just as he heard it being used by a classmate nearby. Flipnsnipwitit. With the incantation in mind and picking up his wand, Ben focused on what he wanted...a little trim off the top where the lanvender extended too far up. With a deep breath, he cast, "Flipnsnipwitit!" Perhaps a little too energetically and he took a little more than he had wanted causing a frown.
Maybe clippers would be better.
