The Rose
"Just what species or, shall we say, genus are you, my dear?" 
Alice
"Well, I guess you would call me... genus, humanus... Alice." 
Daisy
"Ever see an alice with a blossom like that?" 
Orchid
"Come to think of it, did you ever see an alice?" 
Daisy
"Yes, and did you notice her petals? What a peculiar color."
Orchid
[sniffing Alice's hair] "And no fragrance." 
Daisy
[chuckling, as she lifts up one side of Alice's dress] "And just look at those stems." 
The Rose
[as Alice slaps the Daisy's leaves away] "Rather scrawny, I'd say."
Bud
"I think she's pretty." 
The Rose
"Quiet, bud."
