Flowers in Space?

Writing about flowers today. Flowers on the counter of a small tea shop in the Entertainment District of Gaanard:

They decided to visit the Bottomless Kupp a frilly, girly tea and coffee shop that was a favorite of their’s to talk about the events of the day. The “Kupp” was located on one of the quiet side passages of the Entertainment District, away from the noisy Main Corridor. The décor was decidedly feminine, pastel colors and lots of flowers when they could get them from the Sundai Market. Today there were a few flowers here and there, except for a large display of strange, exotic flowers from Trann’s Planet. The shop owners and them predominantly displayed on the counter with a black ribbon around the bowl.

“Oh look!” Liesell exclaimed, pointing out the display which featured fragrent tulip shaped flowers in bright primary colors arranged around the edges of the bowl. The center was filled with greenery that featured strangely shaped bright green and black leaves, and a couple of large, round yellow blooms on long stems that faced straight up. Some thin, light purple vines with tiny, dark purple flowers wrapped around the entire display. As they watched, they realized the two large yellow blooms were swaying back and forth on their long stalks, while the light purple vineds slithered slowly around perimeter of the bowl.
“Oh, wow!” Katia murmured. “It’s a live display!” The girls watched the display with fascination while their order was prepared. The bowl of flowers seemed to come alive at the sound of Katia’s voice. The two large yellow flowers slowly danced back and forth, swaying and wrapping around each other, while the vines sped up and began to chase each other dodging among the brightly colored tulip-like flowers, their stems vibrating excitedly.
“They like to show off,” The owner said with a chuckle as she placed their order on the counter.
"Can they hear me?” Katia asked, wide eyed with amazement as she reached out to touch one of the vines. Abruptly the end of the vine popped up out of the greenery, twisting back and forth as if it was moving around. Then suddenly it dove back into the greenery and resumed the chase with the others.\
“I don’t know if they can hear, or if they just sense the vibrations of someone close by.”
“How long with they live in the bowl?” Liesell asked, reaching over to touch one of the brightly colored flowers near the edge. At her touch it froze in place for a few seconds and then began shivering excitedly.
“Oh, I’ll have them for a few more day shifts,” The owner explained. “Then the Sundai will come and return them to the greenhouse where they will be returned to be with the rest of the Trann foliage. I don’t know how long they actually live.”

A good day today. I've almost written an entire replacement chapter for Dragon Hunters. Hope you enjoyed the excerpt!

Thanks for reading!
