It generally refers to the bank angle, runway alignment and deck angle (pitch) of an airplane at the point of touchdown.

On a perferct day. The airspeed around the stall speed. The flare angle should be enough to slow the descent and start to stall the aircraft about a half a metre above the runway and straight down the centreline.
