The album is a mishmash of previously recorded tracks. The songs either appeared as singles, had been omitted from the American versions of ''[[Aftermath (Rolling Stones album)|Aftermath]]'' and ''[[Between the Buttons]]'', were collected from studio sessions dating back several years, or are simply reissues of songs recently released on other albums. Three tracks had never been released. "[[My Girl (The Temptations song)|My Girl]]" from the ''[[Out of Our Heads]]'' and ''[[Between the Buttons]]'' sessions, and "[[Ride On, Baby]]" and "[[Sittin' On A Fence]]" from the ''Aftermath'' sessions. The title refers to the album's cover, with [[flower]] stems underneath the portrait of each band member. Bassist [[Bill Wyman]] claims that Mick Jagger and Keith Richards deliberately arranged the stem of [[Brian Jones]]'s flower so that it had no [[leaves]], as a prank. He later stated that ''"I didn't get the joke".'' The portraits are from the UK version of ''Aftermath''. ''Flowers'' reached #3 in the US during the late summer of 1967 and went gold. In August 2002 it was remastered and reissued on [[CD]] and [[Super Audio CD|SACD]] [[digipak]] by [[ABKCO Records]]. ==Track listing== All songs by [[Jagger/Richards|Mick Jagger and Keith Richards]], except where noted. #"[[Ruby Tuesday]]" – 3:17 #* ''A January 1967 single release also featured on the US edition of [[Between the Buttons]]'' #"[[Have You Seen Your Mother, Baby, Standing in the Shadow?]]" – 2:34 #* ''A September 1966 single release'' #"[[Let's Spend the Night Together]]" – 3:36 #* ''A January 1967 single release also featured on the US edition of [[Between the Buttons]]'' #"[[Lady Jane]]" – 3:08 #* ''Originally released on [[Aftermath (album)|Aftermath]] in 1966'' #"[[Out of Time (Rolling Stones song)|Out of Time]]" – 3:41 #* ''An abridged edit of the version originally released on the UK edition of Aftermath in 1966'' #"[[My Girl (The Temptations song)|My Girl]]" ([[Smokey Robinson]]/[[Ronald White]]) – 2:38 #* ''Previously unreleased.
