“Clarissa fills a vase with a dozen of the yellow roses” (123).
Flowers, specifically yellow roses appear in many places in the novel. Clarissa sets out to buy flowers for Richard’s party, Virginia sees yellow roses as a symbol for peace when she helps her niece place them around a dead bird, and when Luis visits Clarissa she fidgets with the location of the vase of yellow roses. The roses are symbolic of different things to each of the characters, but they are one of the many connections keeping the characters together.
