Sick plants. Sick plants everywhere. Toby felt a PANG in his heart as he stared around the greenhouse at them all. Boy, this was painful. Buuuuuuuuuut... he focused on Walton, looked right at him and listened before getting too carried away with thoughts about plants. And it seemed like the activity would be right up his street; helping the plants to feel better.

Once Walton had set them all off on their task, Toby stayed at his desk for a moment, to grab a fresh piece of parchment and write his name and everything on it, to use as his log. Then he headed to the cupboard and grabbed a bunch of nametags in advance, so that he had everything ready. With all that sorted, Toby started moving around the room.

Straight away, he was drawn to a super little plant. Toby leaned down and peered at it for a second, and figured that maybe it hadn't been getting enough light at all. That explained how small it was, and... yeah, some of the leaves were yellowed and beyond saving, like on that plant that Professor Walton had shown them earlier.

Toby set down the name tags and his note taking things, so he could properly do a magic. The Hufflepuff retrieved his wand and quickly got to work.

"Diffindo," he cast on the yellow leaves, making the incomplete W shape with his wand. He made quick work of removing the leaves from the plant, and making sure to be extra careful as the plant was so small, thereby making things a tad fiddly. "Diffindo... Diffindo..."

Gradually, one by one, those dead and too-late-to-be-saved leaves were separated from the healthy stem. The plant was already looking better, but still very small, like it had been locked away in a dark room or something. THAT meant the nifty new spell they'd learnt.

"Herbivicus," Toby cast, this time doing the wand movement that was like three little mountains. There was a flash of green light, and the plant grew. Then, because all that growing meant it was probably thirsty, Toby watered it too. "Aguamenti."

THERE. That was one plant HOPEFULLY saved. Toby stuck a name tag bearing 'Toby Tempus (#1)' to the plant pot with 'adhaero'. He paused to add this all to his notes, before moving away to find another plant to help out.
