Explanation

Florid means elaborately decorated or highly ornamental in style; flowery or showy. It can also mean reddish or flushed in complexion. Ornate means elaborately decorated or adorned; having complex patterns or decorative elements. These are very close synonyms, both referring to something that is highly decorated or showy in appearance. The other options (Feeble, Ovate) are unrelated to this meaning of elaborate decoration.
