[If anyone's traveling in the vicinity of House 26, they might take notice of the little garden that's steadily been popping up outside over the past few weeks. Even if it's just another garden at first glance, today one of the residents is kneeling outside in the dirt attempting to change that. In the midst of a patch of what looks like mundane

[Neville's trying to create some Dittany and has been trying to work a good mixture of charms to give the daisies similar properties. Though Neville's never literally heard flowers talk, so he's not sure what the daisies would have to say about that. He smiles politely at the stranger.] Well hello there.

[Well, the daisies seems to say something about how Neville's been poking them with that strange stick and mumbling strange things to them.]

Hello. What are you doing to the daisies? [Coz you'd better not have been hurting any kind of plant life]

I'm getting them ready for breeding. Unless you know of a place here where one could get a bit of dittany pollen?

No, I don't. The dragons live rather far away from us so it's rather hard to get their dung and anyway, they tend to stay away from humans.

Ah, I see... well, I have some lotions and herbal teas that might be able to do the same.
