Hermione spent most of her time in the garden, where the rose bushes already thrived. She also tended tulips and hydrangeas, and planting season for vegetables would begin soon. Neville came over now and again to check on their progress and provide helpful tips to keep the roses, as well as her other plants, in good health. He also transferred some of Narcissa's favorite roses to the new garden. They grew splendidly, blooming a deep, dark red.
