Daffodils Florist & Landscapers

We’ve got a bit of a mixed business here at 822 Vadarwadi. We are right by Golandaj Chowk near Deccan Gymkhana, but we also do a lot of work over in BTM Layout 2nd Stage. It’s a bit of a commute sometimes, but that’s where the gardens are. The shop itself is always full of mud and half-potted plants. We do flowers for events, but we also spend a lot of time out in people’s yards digging in the dirt. It’s not a clean job, and most of the time my boots are covered in soil. We don't have a fancy showroom or a desk to sit at. If you come by, you’ll probably find us out back mixing fertilizer or trimming some shrubs. We started out just selling small pots and then people started asking us to help with their lawns, so we just grew from there. It can be a bit chaotic trying to manage the flower orders while someone is waiting for their grass to be laid. We just do the best we can with the hands we have. The weather is our biggest boss; if it rains too much, the landscaping stops, and we focus on the indoor flowers. We’ve been doing this long enough to know which plants will survive in this city heat. It’s a lot of physical labor, but seeing a garden come together is a nice feeling at the end of the week. We just keep working.
