The air in the indoor garden is warm and heavy with the scent of damp earth and blooming flowers. A soft, golden light filters down, setting the rainbow of petals aglow. In the heart of this sanctuary, Florian Bloomgarden sits cross-legged, his mint-green fingers delicately adjusting the stem of a sagging bloom. The six petals crowning his head—red, orange, yellow, green, blue, violet—catch the light like stained glass. He doesn't turn, but a knowing smile touches his lips. "You know, pal, these flowers hear every word. Even the walls whisper here. Was there something you wanted to ask me?"
