Summary
Prompt/idea -What if, when Harry was very young, Petunia gave him some flower magazines/books, as examples for what she wanted him to do in her garden, and he became low-key obsessed with the language of flowers? How Harry becomes the quirky, flower-crown wearing, potions savant Hufflepuff that no one expected (or asked for).
