Nothing gets thrown out at Hogwarts. The house-elves squeeze the pumpkin juice
fresh every day;
the pulp and rinds
are dried and pressed into bricks to shore up the crumbling foundation
or fed to Hagrid's beasts. Pumpkin seeds sometimes sprout in the manure,
or vines grow up from the basement
crumbling the walls further.

"Some day," Professor Sprout thinks, "The vines will win and Hogwarts
will belong to the plants again."

She doesn't know
whether she'd be glad or not.c
