Sending Flower to a Man

May 7, 2008

Men love to get flowers for the same reason they send them 
- to be recognized. Everyone likes to feel special.  
 
A good indicator of when it might be appropriate to send 
flowers would be to consider his favorite occasions for 
sending them. Does he send flowers for birthdays, or 
perhaps as a thank you? Don't forget that no reason is 
often the best reason!  
 
Just as women love receiving flowers for no reason at all, 
a surprise floral gift will surely catch his attention too. 
 
 
The Best Designs and Colors for Men  
 
Men are stimulated by color and are visually oriented. 
Research shows that men prefer vivid colors such as yellow, 
orange and red.  
 
Flower arrangements that are contemporary, linear styles or 
natural styles are best. Other favorites might include 
green or flowering plants.  
 
Tell your florist that you want flowers for a man and ask 
for specific suggestions. If your recipient has a hobby, 
perhaps you could highlight that. For example, if he is a 
golfer, tuck in a box of golf balls. If he is into cars, 
add an auto magazine or two. Your florist can offer 
creative suggestions for flowers that are sure to please.
