As Kate sat down with the young pupils, looking perfect for spring in a bubblegum pink shirt dress and her favorite espadrilles, the Princess of Wales opened up about her personal love of gardening.
The mom-of-three, who lives at Adelaide Cottage in Windsor with husband Prince William and kids, Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis, admitted she isn't entirely versed in botanical lingo.
Asking one little one if they had a favorite flower, Princess Catherine quizzed, "Can you remember its name?"
As the student responded to tell her they couldn't recall the name of their highlight from the day out in the garden, Kate admitted, "There are so many complicated names as well!
"Often they name all the parts of the flowers in Latin. I can never remember those names," Princess Catherine added, shaking her head as she sat on a picnic blanket on the lawn.
Kate also replied in the loveliest way when a little girl began asking her all about her life in the Royal Family.
