In Bloom

You can find us at 128/179, H 1 in Kidwai Nagar. We are very close to the Up Kirana School, which means it gets pretty busy around here when classes let out. It is a nice part of Kanpur. Being in the flower and event business, our space usually smells like lilies or roses, depending on what came in that morning. We get our stock early while the city is still waking up. It is a lot of physical work that people do not always see. Lugging buckets of water and trimming stems takes up a lot of our time. We have a small group of people working here who really know their plants. We do not do much of that high-pressure sales stuff. If someone walks in wanting a simple bouquet or help with a wedding, we just show them what is fresh. The shop is a bit cluttered, but that is just how it is when you are busy. Sometimes the floor is covered in leaves and petals by noon. We try to keep things simple. We know our regulars by name, and they know us. It is the kind of place where you can just stop by and talk about what you need without a lot of fuss. We have been in Kidwai Nagar for a good while now and we like it here. It feels like home to us. We are just happy to be part of the neighborhood.
