Women are usually the recipients of flowers. Flowers are often inclined to feminine side and not so much on the masculine side.

It would probably depend on which flower and the type of arrangement that will be done. There are a lot of contemporary manly flower arrangements nowadays that can fit a man’s taste. Floral arrangements with clean style and natural look will definitely fit him well.
For the types of flowers, just like with any other flower there is, symbolism and messages through flowers can always be portrayed when giving them to your man. You can ask your florist which of these flowers are available but most of them are all year round:
- Red roses – as usual, red roses are the symbol of love. You give red roses to someone to express your love, appreciation, and infatuation.

- Yellow roses – If red roses are usually given to show love and appreciation, yellow roses on the other hand, are given to express friendship and long-time bond. If you have a male friend that you have known for several years now and you want to surprise him with a bunch of Flowers yellow roses are one of the best choices you can buy. You can choose a more contemporary arrangement to give it a more muscular look. A message card will also make this more special.
- Bamboo – since a more muscular arrangement involves straight lines and sharper features, using bamboo as the main material in your flower arrangement will give it more depth and sophistication.

- Flowering plants in a pot – If your man does not like floral arrangements that much, you may choose to purchase flowering plants that are planted in a pot. In this way you will also teach him to take care of the plant and he can be able to remember you when he sees this plant in his room or house. Right now, flower and plant propagation are very popular in many countries. This is not supposed to be only for girls but can also be a hobby for guys. You definitely will not have any reasons not to give Flowers at this point. Flowers are really versatile and can fit any occasion and any recipient.
- White Orchids – White orchids are very gender neutral in nature. They can be a great decoration to any space whether it be at home or in the office. If you plan on giving him a flower for a special occasion, white orchids are the best choice especially if you place them in a beautiful pot. He can literally place this anywhere especially in his office at work. This will not only give an aesthetic value to his cubicle, but he can also remember you when he sees this arrangement. White orchids also do not wilt too fast. Just as long as he replaces the water or waters it if it is planted in soil, it will last for a few weeks or even months.
- Gerberas – Gerberas are very popular because of their vibrant colors and their versatility to any kind of arrangement. When it comes to symbolism, gerberas signify cheerfulness and happiness. If you have a partner who always makes you happy and is the sunshine in a dark room, giving him gerberas will definitely be fitting.
