Prince Harry continued his busy week of engagements with a visit to Epping Forest on Wednesday (Mar. 15), where he was shown around the Queen's Commonwealth Canopy project by a group of excited children.

The 32-year-old learned more about woodland conservation and met with local tree surgeons. He also let it slip that he sadly has not inherited the same green thumb his father Prince Charles has. He shared with the children his disappointment over discovering the tulips he planted bloomed too early.
