Default Greenhouses



The seven greenhouses of Hogwarts are a bridge between the castle and the magnificent grounds surrounding it. They are home to a wide variety of plants which, in the cases of Greenhouses 1-5, are organized neatly in various pots and grow boxes. If you look closely at the plants, you may occasionally find a name tag listing not the scientific name of the plant, but common names such as "Reginald" or "Phillip." In the cases of Greenhouses 6 and 7 the plants are more haphazardly placed and chaotically growing. Professor Lillian has yet to spend more time in those areas to tidy up, so please bear with the mess for a bit.

In each greenhouse there are shelves and cabinets containing empty pots, tools, and other basic necessities for working with plants. There are tables throughout and a large sink in one corner of each greenhouse, along with a compost pile behind Greenhouse 1 for unwanted clippings.

Greenhouses 1, 2, 3, and 6 are open for student use. Permission is required for access to 4, 5, and 7.


OOC: Here's a basic guide of what you might find in each greenhouse; please remember to play realistically based on your character's age and skill level!
Credit for the layout of the Greenhouses goes to previous Herbology Professors: BanaBatGirl, kayquilz, Shanners, Samia, MadAlice, and Holmesian Feline.
