Great Florist Finds for Your Guy on Valentine’s Day
1. Tropical Flowers
Tropical flowers have fiery colors, interesting shapes, and unique textures which look perfect in the types of contemporary designs that men tend to prefer. Our modern Lolei arrangement features birds of paradise, protea, ginger, and a variety of exotic foliage. This sophisticated design will look great in any office or home.
2. Live Orchids
Exotic orchids are a wonderful for choice for men on Valentine’s Day. The alluring beauty of the flowers will remind him of you, and they’ll continue to bloom every winter. Plus, they’re relatively simple to care for. For men, we recommend all-white Phalaenopsis orchids, like those in our Twin Orchid Plant design.
3. Succulents
If your man has a busy schedule, then a low-maintenance gift is essential. Succulents are the perfect choice! These desert natives are attractive and rarely need to be watered. With a variety of succulents, a natural, wooden planter, and accent stones, our Simply Succulent design is perfect any man.
4. Bromeliads
Bromeliads are members of the pineapple family, and they share similarly spiky leaves. When they bloom, however, they have vibrantly colored tops that your guy will love looking at! Our favorite Bromeliad Plant includes two blooming bromeliads in a sleek container.
5. Forest Fragrance
If your guy loves spending time in the great outdoors, give him the feeling even when he’s stuck inside with a candle that smells just like a forest of Frazier Fir trees!
Why Flowers Are Perfect for Men on Valentine’s Day
Men actually enjoy flowers just as much as women. In fact, giving your guy flowers on Valentine’s Day could help you boost the romantic vibes because studies have shown that men who receive flowers become more open and communicative. They make better eye contact, and they tend to stand closer to their loved ones. If you’re hoping to share a few intimate moments with your significant other this year, we strongly recommend giving him flowers.
How to Choose a Floral Arrangement for Your Guy
When choosing a floral arrangement for a guy, we recommend looking for designs that feature darker colors, rather than pastels. Look for sunny hues, vibrant primaries, or monochrome color palettes. Men tend to prefer arrangements that include more greens. It’s also good to look for contemporary looks that feature compact designs and clean, strong lines. When in doubt, succulents are always an excellent choice.
If you’re not sure what type of floral design would be best for your husband or boyfriend, don’t worry! Our expert florists at Beneva & Plantscapes are happy to help. Whether you order online, in person, or over the phone, we’ll provide you with personalized recommendations and make sure you choose the perfect floral design for your man this Valentine’s Day.
