Pretty Petals

Pretty Petals is located at H.No 22/332 on Cochin University Road in Thrikakkara. Being right on the road that leads to the university means we see a lot of students and staff walking by every day. It’s a fairly busy stretch of road, and there is always some sort of activity going on. Our place is tucked into the ground floor of the house, and we have our flowers and plants set up there. The smell of the shop is usually the first thing people notice when they walk in, which is one of the better parts of working here. Thrikakkara is a nice area, and being near CUSAT gives the whole neighborhood a bit of an energetic feel. We spend a lot of time trimming stems, watering the plants, and tidying up the petals that fall on the floor. It’s a bit of a messy job sometimes, but we don't mind getting our hands dirty. The shop isn't very large, so things can get a bit cramped when we have a lot of stock in for a busy week. We have a regular routine of checking the plants every morning and making sure everything looks okay. The address 22/332 is easy enough to find if you’re coming from the main university gate. We’ve been here for a while and have gotten to know the regular commuters. It’s just a simple flower business run by people who live and work in the Thrikakkara area.
