【 Hiro Tanaka ≎ Genin ≎ Kohonagakure 】 Location: Standing beside roses in the Shoppe _ Chakra: 150 / 150 _ Stamina: 150 / 150

The exterior of Ibara's Flower Shoppe seemed really rather unkempt, considering flowers were supposed to be a symbol of fresh, natural growth. Beyond a few shrubs in the window, nothing inside seemed to render any production at all. Was this the right flower shoppe?
Brow furrowed, Hiro walked up to the entrance, gripping the door handle and pushed timidly inside. A small brass bell rung out upon contact with the door as Hiro passed through. Each step deliberate, getting accustomed to his surroundings. While the lighting wasn't exactly the best, the aromas were certainly that of nature. Each flower and bush gave its own distinct fragrance, but in the air, all of it blended together. Hiro let go of the door as it swung back to close, ringing the bell once more with a chipper tone. It didn't match the rest of the environment.
"Is anybody working here today?" Hiro called out. His lips formed a sneer, expecting a little more from what most people would hope to be a happier place. Silence. Hiro moved toward a shelf of flowers. Roses, he recognized. He leaned in, breathing in a bit of the scent, collecting a slight headiness in its odor before pulling away.

So the place wasn't completely dead after all. Hiro turned his head, looking past the leaves of hanging shrubbery toward a door only slightly dissimilar in color from the boutique's beige interior. It came from there. He walked down the aisle of flowers and potted plants to the back of the shop, which housed much larger, leafier shrubs, before turning the corner toward the door. Hiro knocked on the door twice, then grabbed hold of the notched handle and slid the door open.
"The latter, actually," Hiro said, catching sight of a brunette boy in covered in a sunbeam from the nearby window. Hiro reached into his pocket and pulled out the two missives, checking to see which one was for this shoppe. When he found it, he stashed the other missive back into his pocket, keeping hold of the directive for work in the palm of his hand. "The order from Akimichi Haru says the shoppe requests prep and assist work. I'm here to oblige."
Hiro took a moment glancing around this back room, wondering what this job would entail. Counters sprawled along two walls on opposite sides of the room. One contained a section of living plants inside glass cases. The rest had nothing special. A few trimming tools here and there, with other plants sprawled about.

A small utterance of an okay by Hiro, and he walked through the back room toward a door beside the brown-haired shopkeeper. He reached for the handle, giving a quick twist of his wrist and exited outside.
The back area was far greener than the dingy beige interior. While most of the area was grass, there were potted plants along the sides of the area basking in the sunlight of mid-afternoon. Above Hiro, an awning gave a small shaded area for workers and customers alike to enjoy the natural area without enduring the heat. It was at the very edge of this awning's shadow where Hiro eyed almost half a pallet each of both mulch and fertilizer. Each marked with Kohona's symbol. Easy enough. Hiro moved to the piles, grabbing hold of a mulch bag. Pretty good weight to these bags, possibly twenty-five to thirty kilograms. Luckily, the contents inside made them easy enough to grab and flop around. He flopped one bag over his shoulder, making sure it stayed put. Then he reached down and grabbed a second mulch-bag, pulling it onto the other side. Hiro stood upright and turned back to the door and walked inside, laying the mulch bags down beside the counter top.
Hiro repeated this task over and over, bringing two bags at a time and laying them down, totaling twelve mulch bags in all. The fertilizer was much the same, bringing ten inside to lay in a separate pile. After the last two bags had been laid down on the top of the pile, Hiro clapped his hands clean. brushing away some of the dust that got on him, then spoke to the brunette. "Bags are in over by the counter. Do you want me to get the plants with a hose, a can, or it doesn't matter?"

【 Hiro Tanaka ≎ Genin ≎ Kohonagakure 】 Location: Beside the pharmaceutical plants in the back room. _ Chakra: 150 / 150 _ Stamina: 150 / 150

He looked around the back room, finding the blue watering can tucked in the corner. He walked over, grabbing the can by its handle and went outside. The back patio served as a traditional garden. Feng Shui down to a central pump which poured water into a small reed, before the reed tilted and dumped it out. Hiro stepped over a couple potted plants to the pump, holding the can over the outlet for the water to drip in, with his other hand gripping the pump handle. A pair of pumps flushed the can half full. For the section the brunette pointed out to Hiro, this should be plenty.
The can swished back and forth gently in Hiro's hand. Over the top, the occasional droplet or two splashed out of the watering can. The dehydrated nutrients mixed readily with the water, but Hiro felt a bit more movement couldn't hurt. He entered back under the awning, shutting the door behind him. All the plants were lined up with a little tag sticking up from the soil of each. Each label neatly written, there would be no mistakes for anybody seeking one out.
From behind him, the brunette asked a question. Hunger. It hadn't crossed Hiro's mind, but he hadn't eaten yet today. Yes. Now with the thought in his head, he felt his stomach grumble. "Yeah, I could eat," Hiro replied as he got to work. He sprinkled the water up along the plants. The water soaked into the soil, darkening it slightly. He made sure not to give them too much. There were no pools. There was no mud. Each plant received the same treatment.
