Step into a Japanese flower shop and embark on a floral journey

Flower shops are everywhere in Japan. They are not just a scenic sight but an important part of people's lifestyle, and running a flower shop has become a respected profession.

Let's take a short flower shop tour

In Japan, subway stations are commercial districts

Every subway station has flower shops

And they are often positioned in prime locations

For people busy making a living

A flower shop is a comfort available anytime, anywhere

Because flower shops are run to a high standard

And because foot traffic is heavy

You can often see crowds gathered at flower shops

This contrasts with the quietness of flower shops in China

Japan's large commercial centers are known for being "big"

In fact, they are also the largest flower and gardening markets

Some market spaces reach several thousand sq m

But most of the goods are growing materials

Consumers buy them home and plant them themselves

This places high demands on understanding consumer trends

Japan's residential communities are densely populated

And are also the main battlefield for flowers and gardening

And precisely because they are in communities

Flower shops can be very plain and very casual

For example, this one even sells snacks as a side business

For example, this one

Green plants and fresh flowers set each other off beautifully

For example, this one is in a farmers' market

Specializing in herbaceous flower seedlings

And right next door on the right is a seafood shop

In some special locations

Flower shops can become very artistic, even very free-spirited

For example, in the countryside on the outskirts of Osaka

This small flower shop is simply named "Flower Shop"

In the green belt near Meiji Shrine in Tokyo

A plain woman

Opened a plain cafe

Along with a plain flower shop

And in Akasaka, Tokyo, filled with young office workers

This shop called Bar Rosa Rosa

Translated, it means "Rose Rose Bar"

Is meant to let young people hold a drink in their left hand and flowers in their right

Japan also has a unique kind of flower shop

Located inside office buildings

Like this one, on the third floor of an insurance company

With no outside consumers

Providing customized services exclusively for the companies and white-collar workers in the building
