All in the Golden Afternoon
Answer
All in the Golden Afternoon
The song sung by the flowers is “All in the Golden Afternoon.” Alice encounters the talking flower garden after shrinking and wandering through Wonderland, and the flowers welcome her with this bright, fanciful musical number.
The song’s title comes from the opening poem of Lewis Carroll’s 1865 book, Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland. That poem recalls the golden afternoon when Carroll improvised the original Alice story for the Liddell sisters during a boat trip. Disney’s song adapts the imagery into lyrics about flowers, insects, sunlight, and happiness.
The scene later turns hostile. The flowers begin questioning what kind of flower Alice is, decide that she must be a weed, and drive her away. This reversal is easy to confuse with other songs in the film, especially “Very Good Advice,” which Alice sings alone, “Painting the Roses Red,” performed by the card gardeners, and “The Unbirthday Song,” associated with the Mad Hatter’s tea party.
Bob Hilliard and Sammy Fain wrote the song for Disney’s 1951 production. The flowers’ elaborate choreography and whimsical creatures—including bread-and-butterflies—make the sequence one of the film’s most memorable musical passages.
