“Flowers are never an expensive luxury; they are the easiest way for ordinary people to express tenderness.”

Kuala Lumpur——Walking in the crowded street of Kuala Lumpur, a nondescript flower store definitely catches an eye among the others. The owner has run the store for years, day in, day out surrounded by fresh flowers. In this multi cultural city, he finds a different sort of love.

The shopkeeper admits that is both his biggest obstacle and his greatest joy. For Lunar New Year, Hari Raya Aidil Fitri, Deepavali, flower arrangements for grand opening and couples’ anniversaries, Agarwal tailors flower arrangements and colour palettes for all occasions.
