“Miss Lottie’s marigolds were perhaps the strangest part of the picture. Certainly they did not fit in with the crumbling decay

of the rest of her yard. Beyond the dusty brown yard, in front of the sorry gray house, rose suddenly and shockingly a dazzling strip of bright blossoms, clumped together in enormous mounds, warm and passionate and sun-golden.
The author used the imagery in these sentences primarily to help the reader understand that—

A) Miss Lottie didn’t like her house
B) The marigolds were something special that stood out in their surroundings
C) The flowers were a strange color
D) The marigolds flourished in the flower beds
