The Best Valentine’s Gifts for Him That You Can Find at Our Flower Shop
Simple Sentiment 2
1. Red Roses
Red roses are the quintessential Valentine flower because they symbolize romantic love. Deliver them unexpectedly in our Simple Sentiment bouquet which features ruby-red roses among other jewel-toned blooms.
Simply Succulent
2. Succulents
If your man has a busy schedule, then a low-maintenance gift is essential. Succulents are perfect because they’re beautiful and require hardly any care. Simply have your guy put them in a sunny location and water infrequently.
Dish Garden
3. Dish Gardens
We love dish gardens for just about any man. Our 8″ Dish Garden includes a carefully selected variety of green plants that will thrive in just about any environment. They’ll purify the air, replenish the oxygen, and create a calming atmosphere at home or in the office.
White Orchid Planter
4. Orchids
An orchid’s alluring beauty will remind your guy of you now and when it continues to bloom every winter. For men, we recommend the pure-white blooms of the Phalaenopsis orchid in a no-frills container that really highlights the plant’s own charms.
’65 Ford Mustang Bouquet
5. Hot Rod Flowers
This ’65 Ford Mustang Bouquet could probably arrive without the flowers and your guy wouldn’t even notice. He’ll love admiring this keepsake convertible, and we think he’ll appreciate the bouquet of lovely blooms in cheerfully nostalgic, primary colors.
Why Flowers Are the Perfect Valentine’s Gift for Him
Flowers are more commonly sent to women, but that doesn’t mean that men don’t enjoy receiving them (because they really do!). In fact, sending flowers to your beau for Valentine’s Day might just be the perfect way to take your holiday and relationship to the next level. Studies have shown that men who receive flowers can become more open and communicative. They make increased eye contact, and they position themselves closer to those who are nearby. If you’re hoping to share an intimate day with your significant other, then we strongly recommend giving him flowers.
How to Choose a Floral Arrangement for Your Guy
Picking a floral design for a man can be tricky — especially when you don’t know what kind of flowers he likes. Unless you know they’re his favorite colors, we typically recommend avoiding pinks and pastels because they tend to be included in more feminine-looking designs. For men, we recommend jewel tones like red, blue, purple, and yellow. Men also tend to prefer monochromatic arrangements, as a lot of colors can sometimes be seen as feminine.
Roses are a wonderful choice of flower because every color of bloom has a different meaning. With roses, it’s more about what the flower says than how it looks. Tropical flowers are also an excellent choice; they’re unique and complex with vibrant colors. They’re not your everyday flowers seen in arrangements, and they tend to work the best in the types of modern designs that men love.
If you’re looking for a potted plant, we most often recommend dish gardens, succulents, orchids, peace lilies, and snake plants for men because they require relatively little care and will thrive in most environments.

Whether you order online, in person, or over the phone, we’ll provide you with expert advice and personalized recommendations to help you select the perfect Valentine’s gift for your sweetheart.
