#7 Morning Gardening

"Woah, berries!" Kody peeked them between the lucious leaves of the plant.

He wondered if he could just... Kody tried to pull one of the berries free but it remained firmly attached to the stems and he chuckled. He should have known it wasn't going to be as easy as all that.

Kody looked around and spotted some shears nearby. They didn't seem to belong to anyone in particular so he assumed it was okay for him to borrow them for a moment.

"Sorry about this but I need your berries, I hope you understand. Thank you for growing so big and strong and producing so many of them!" He praised each plant in turn before he started snipping.

There was an effort made not to cut away more than was necessary but Kody quickly realised that the pots were cracked and unusable anyway. There would be no saving these plants. They had served their purpose.

With that realisation firmly planted in his mind, he didn't hesitate to snip away the small stems and branches in his way to get to the berries.

Soon he had three neat piles of Moonurk berries and a whole lot of clean up to do. Kody hummed a tune to himself as he cheerfully cleared away broken pots, old soil and bits of plant.

Once the area was clean and tidy, he stowed his berries away carefully (he remembered what Reena had said about ingredients and made sure they wouldn't get damaged in some way).

Kody then dug out his new pots and lined them up, along with his fancy one, in slots 7, 8, 9 & 10. He reached into his bag for his seeds and gasped when he noticed some colourful seeds he hadn't noticed before.

"I wonder what you grow..." He grinned, filling each pot with soil and adding seeds to each one.

There was no rhyme or reason to the order but he planted pink, red and purple in his ordinary pots and used the fancy pot for the multicoloured seeds. He put his hands on his hips when he was done and admired his hard work.

And then remembered.

"Oh, you need water! Hold on, um, what was the spell again?" Kody plucked his wand from his robes and aimed at each pot.

"Aguamenti, Aguamenti, Aguamenti and Aguamenti! There!" A shower of water soaked each pot and Kody finished off by giving each one a loving pat. He was excited to see what they would grow for him.

He put his wand away and hurried out of the Greenhouse.

There was a Quidditch match calling his name!
