What happens

Flowers for Madame is a 1935 American animated comedy short film directed by Isadore Freleng. The short was released on November 20, 1935. It is the 52nd film in the Merrie Melodies series. It is also the first film in the series to use 3-strip Technicolor, as Walt Disney Productions' 3-strip Technicolor exclusivity deal expired after its release; the film is a pastiche of Disney's Silly Symphony cartoon Flowers and Trees. It was re-released as a "Blue Ribbon" reissue in 1953, rendering the original film and credits lost to this day. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
