In a city where greenery is the rarest thing, there is a flower kiosk that seems to have escaped from a garden. The florist’s of Campiello San Vidal is squashed against the railing of one of the few large private gardens in Venice, and its bunches spill onto the pavement like an offshoot of the park that pushed its way between the iron bars.
