Victoria, recently released from the foster care system and without a home, job, or any close connections, meets a local florist while camping out in a park near the shop. Offered a job and her first opportunity at friendship in years, she starts putting together custom bouquets for clients using the Victorian language of flowers, having learned about flowers and their meanings from a brief time at a home when she was a child. Allowing herself to care opens up old wounds and new challenges, and following Victoria as the mystery of her past catches up with her struggles in the present is a satisfying, though sometimes heartbreaking, journey.
