Covent Garden Flowers, Thursday
Three potted cacti had started dying overnight.
That was what Octavia assumed, anyway, based on how rapidly their condition seemed to worsen as the day went on. By lunchtime, it became obvious she was going to have to do something or they'd have fully shriveled down before the end of her shift.
As she cut the healthy parts from the rotten and set them aside so they could form calluses around the cuts, she decided she was pretty sure they'd be ready for re-potting by the time she'd be heading home. It seemed to be a weirdly accelerated day at Covent Garden Flowers.
Spoiler alert: she was right.
