1) Blancheflor, or white flower, is a very symbolic type of person. Her name stands for two thing, white often stands for purity while the flower stands as something delicate or untouched, almost innocent in a way. She resists the knights advances and goes no further than a kiss and feeding the knight.
2) Perceval is literally shown the grail and yet he has no idea what he's looking at, he sits at the table with all of this magic and weirdness surrounding him and he says nothing. He asks not of the lord's injuries and he asks nothing of the bleed lance, but most importantly he asks nothing about the golden grail that is being passed around and nothing as to why it was carried into the room with an honor guard. There where a million white flags, and as we find out, if he had asked a question of the lord than he would have saved the lord and made him great once again.
