A play that was likely written in the late 19th century. The narrative unfolds in a florist’s shop, centering on themes of floral arrangements which symbolize deeper human connections and societal conventions. This light comedic work captures the spirit of the era through its focus on the nuances of social interactions surrounding significant life events. In the play, a lady visits the florist to arrange flowers for a social gathering, aiming to create a thematic coherence that complements her guest's ethereal beauty. As she debates flower selections, a young man enters, also selecting roses, and a dynamic unfolds that hints at deeper connections. Amidst their exchanges, a misunderstanding arises, connecting the lady's planned flowers and the young man's sentiments, revealing the intricate link between flowers and human emotions. The interactions are interspersed with light humor and conversations that reflect on love, beauty, and the transient moments of life, culminating in a delightful exploration of how floral choices can resonate with personal relationships.
