A Broadway review pans House of Flowers by Truman Capote and Harold Arlen. The story is called trite, with a so-so score and largely unremarkable songs aside from A Sleepin Bee sung by Diahann Carroll. Pearl Bailey lacks standout numbers, while the production's gaudy West Indian setting and design are noted.
