The beautiful Professor Pomona Sprout. I know she is supposed to be “a squat little witch” according to J.K. Rowling, but I like her like this, too.

Flutterby Bush and real Rue and real Nettles.

Indoor Category: 2nd Place (tie) Title: Museum of Hawaiian Plant Lore Exhibitor Info: Louise Krasniewicz Bryn Mawr, PA Intent: For Hawaiians, plants are resources for medicines, food, baskets, cordage, bowls, canoes, bark cloth, and ritual objects. But plants are also the physical manifestation (Kinolau) of the many different gods who inhabit daily life. When Kapu (Tabu) is violated in this museum, should the famous Honolulu detective take the case? Judges comments: Exquisite plant material. Very imaginative. Love the music! Tilted cabinet a slight distraction.
