Love is in the air, and the most romantic day of the year has almost arrived! If you’re still trying to figure out what to get your boyfriend or husband for Valentine’s Day, our florists want you to know that you don’t have to look any further than our local flower shop. At Rose Hill Flowers serving Nashville, we have a great selection of Valentine’s gifts for guys, including flowers, available right here in our shop.
Why Science Says Flowers Are a Great Valentine’s Gift for Guys
Men enjoy receiving flowers just as much as women. If, however, you’re someone who thinks it seems strange to give a guy flowers, then you should really see what science has to say about the matter. Studies have shown that men who receive flowers become more open and communicative. They make better eye contact and stand closer to those around them. In other words, they become more inclined toward real intimacy. If you’re hoping to spend a special, romantic day with your significant other, then we strongly suggest giving him flowers for Valentine’s Day.
Our Favorite Valentine’s Gifts for Men
1. Red Roses
Roses are perfect for both men and women, and red roses, symbolizing romantic love, are perfect for Valentine’s Day. Our Love Boat design is a great choice for men because it pairs red roses with more masculine-looking succulents for a strong look that will clearly convey your feelings of affection.
2. Tropical Flowers
Tropical flowers bloom in fiery hues, have strange shapes, and unusual textures which look lovely in the types of modern floral designs men love. Our Sanctuary arrangement is truly stunning with tangerine birds of paradise taking flight in a forest of exotic foliage.
3. Succulents
If your guy has a busy schedule and limited free time, then a low-maintenance gift is essential. Succulents are the perfect combination of beauty and ease because they’re stunning and hardly require any attention. Our Desktop Succulent Garden contains a hand-selected variety of succulents that’ll sit perfectly on his desk and remind him of you while he’s hard at work.
4. Dish Gardens
Dish gardens are the perfect choice when you’re not sure what to choose! These planters are like small gardens that can fit on a desktop. Our dish gardens contain a careful selection of blooming and non-blooming plants that are easy to care for and that will thrive in just about any light conditions.
5. Orchids
Orchids have an enchanting beauty that can capture the heart of any recipient. For men, we especially recommend all-white Phalaenopsis orchids.
How to Choose the Perfect Flowers for Your Love
Selecting a floral arrangement for a man can seem like a daunting task at first, but you’ll quickly discover that there are actually plenty of appropriate design options available. Unless you know your guy likes pink and pastels, we recommend passing them up in favor of vibrant colors, primary hues, jewel tones, and saturated monochromatic color palettes. Men also tend to prefer contemporary floral designs. Look for strong, clean lines and compact silhouettes.
If you still aren’t sure what type of flowers to order for your husband or boyfriend for Valentine’s Day, don’t worry! Our romance experts at Rose Hill Flowers are always happy to help. Whether you order in person, over the phone, or online, we’ll provide you with professional advice and personalized recommendations to help you pick the perfect floral gift for your beau on Valentine’s Day.
