B. In the flower garden of a small ranch during the winter

Answer:

B. In the flower garden of a small ranch during the winter

Explanation:

This beautiful story by Steinbeck takes place in Salinas Valley, just south of San Francisco, in California, in a little flower ranch where Eliza Allen works with chrysanthemums in her husband´s ranch. These flowers come to symbolize Eliza´s own fragility and beauty, as well as, at the same time, her resilience and strength. In the story, these characteristics are accentuated through the appearance of the traveler.
