Althea Scabior wasn't one to buy into the whole 'make the room more lively' thing. She simply wanted the presenter to get on with it, and was pleased when she did. Even more pleased when the subject matter proved to be interesting. She took a few notes and stayed silent up the back. No questions here.

The air plants though.... sounded ideal for her daughter. One of those could be a good way of introducing Jade to caring for plants, and responsibility in the first instance.

She applauded at the end, selected one of the samples, and left the room efficiently. It was a very full schedule for her.
