Flowers are a gift usually given by men to women. However, you can also give flowers to men. Most often this is done at concert premieres, on days of scientific discoveries and, of course, on a birthday.
Flowers for men
The rules of etiquette say that you should not give flowers to a man if he is older than you, unless the reason for this, of course, was a birthday or any other special occasion. If you still need to give a man flowers, you should remember about the color scheme. A win-win option would be a bouquet in purple, white, burgundy, green and blue. The composition definitely should not have bows, ribbons, patterns and accessories in general.
A man can be presented with a modest ikebana, this does not contradict etiquette.
In fact, there are not very many "purely masculine" flowers, but many present to men orchids, gladioli, gerberas, daisies, carnations, roses, irises or delphiniums. Often the bouquet is made in a basket, and a bottle of good brandy and candy is added there.
Romantic people give the object of their love one scarlet rose, and the reaction to this gift is different. Some arrive in complete admiration, although someone falls into some bewilderment.
What flowers do men want to receive as a gift
For an anniversary, a man of a respectable age can be presented with a bouquet of plain flowers. Wildflowers are usually given at home. Some men prefer to receive as a gift not a bouquet of cut flowers, but a "money tree" in a pot, they can then take care of the plant on their own. Another advantage of a living plant is the fact that, unlike cut flowers, it will not wither after a few days, but will remain for a long memory.
When choosing a bouquet of flowers for your colleagues or your boss, buy a bouquet that contains exotic elements. The rules of etiquette approve of such additions to bouquets. If a man is your boss, a bouquet of emerald calla lilies, compiled by a professional florist, will come in handy.
For colleagues, you can pick up a bouquet of several types of flowers, wrapped in beautiful wrapping paper.
Before giving flowers to a man, you need to know in advance his attitude towards them. Some men treat flowers sharply negatively, therefore, they should not be given them at all.
Men have everyone's favorite holiday on February 23, when, in addition to gifts, they are given flowers. It will be possible to present one flower and its choice can be anything. In general, statistics show that men like large flowers more, and the larger they are, the better.
Scarlet roses stand apart; these are flowers for a very close person of age or for a loved one.
