Most Probably, the poet was walking in the countryside, When He heard a single young cowgirl singing a folk song.
Her dilemma was to choose two men or Philip Joseph.
Every flower or vegetable, planted in the countryside was Associated love to a phrase such as:
"Flowers of fig, in every situation, the first love is unforgettable"
"Flower Savoy Cabbage, I do not want a boyfriend without value, I want a boy handsome and rich"
"Flower of Rose. I want to be polite and funny, because i am not more jealous"
Poetically speaking this folk song does not impress me, but not its musicality and the creativity to associate her love to flowers and vegetables.
