Dear Entity,

Do you know what would be great for my burgeoning garden? A dittany plant, Devil's Snare, Venemous Tentacula, or A WHOMPING WILLOW! I mean I never actually got to see the one at Hogwarts ~~a shame really~~, but I promise I could handle it.

Everyone else, do you know where I can get some seeds to grow? I want all kinds! Ultimately, it would be great to have a small island of the northern wilderness, tropical rainforest, a beachy area with palms, and the like to escape to for the winter months.

I hope to be open by November 1st! If anyone has a green thumb, likes to move dirt, or just help it would be appreciated. I could probably afford to hire a couple people if anyone needs a job.

	[She will get a paper with directions to a small enclosed plot of land, much like a greenhouse. Unfortunately, the entity does not want violent plants in Goodland so those are not granted. The enclosed plot of land will be able to grow other magical plants and operate no matter weather conditions.] (Reply to this)

	Or something. Sometimes I wonder if there is a greater plan or we are just that, entertainment. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	The greater plan is bull if there is one. It keeps taking everyone I care about. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I am sorry! It's absolute rubbish. I do, however, promise to force you into binging on junk food and even a hug once in a while when you need it. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	charmingveela 2021-09-18 02:40 pm UTC (link)
	Yes, please! If you know where I can get some seeds or plants that would be greatly helpful too. Ooh water plants! Might have to start with the Muggle ones first. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Kings County Nurseries is a good place to begin, I believe. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Do Muggle plants grow like magical ones? I mean they won't need any special care, diets, or get up and walk away if they don't like what you're doing. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	ernie_macmillan 2021-09-18 02:48 pm UTC (link)
	Most need water and sunlight. Some require special seeds. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	charmingveela 2021-09-18 02:50 pm UTC (link)
	Oh, that sounds dull. The right magical spells should regulate the climate within the garden easily enough. Toss in some rainy days occasionally. A rose garden is certain as they are my mom's favorite. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I am certain Fleur would appreciate the sentiment. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

I am sure! Roses are nice to look at but I would eventually like to have a small collection of magical plants. They're not easy to grow or pretty to look at but what if something chaotic happens again here? ~~As it tends to do~~ Muggle plants do not seem to be as effective at healing and whatnot. Aloe won't do much if a dragon or something shows up.

A pretty place to relax is great and all, but I don't know. Doesn't feel like it adds much value to Goodland. I want to be useful and stop feeling like I just take up space.

Sorry, I talk too much. Anyhow, maybe next weekend we can get planting once I've secured some plants?

	I understand that feeling. I am a guardian on the children's floor, but they are mostly independent and Frigga is much better at dealing with them than I. Next weekend is fine. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

I am not a child but I promise I will appreciate any help and company, to be honest. Sometimes this is a very hard place to be. If anything the plants will certainly need care and attention.

You're welcome to stop by whenever too if you like! The Entity has given me space but at the moment it's nothing but dirt and open space. I am thinking of magicking a small stream and pond and some general landscaping soon before deciding on plants.

	Bring your wand unless you like to do the work by hand. I admit I like to do a little bit of both. My dad was a big fan of doing things by hand like building the extension of our house after Louis was born. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Alright, you take care of the wand-waving and I will do the rest. How are you with Charms? I admit I was always much more adept at Charms, Transfiguration, and potions than anything else. Long as we don't need defensive charms or a history lesson we should be okay. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Oooh, that's a good idea! I wonder if there is some stuff still growing there considering the weather is starting to get colder. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	Those sound like very unusual plants. I'm not expert on gardening but I'm sure they don't exist in my world. I do know what a willow tree is but not a....what is the word you used? Oh yes, a "whomping" one. (Reply to this)
