Flowers For Your Man?!!

Women are always getting flowers for birthdays, anniversaries, weddings and get well gifts; but is it ever appopriate to give flowers to a man?

Should a woman give a man flowers? The answer is yes. Men who enjoy gardening and growing plants, in general, may appreciate a potted plant as a gift. Flowers, which are brightly colored, may not appeal to him but more rural, darker colored plants may suffice. Avoid flowers that are pastel and lavender in color and opt for larger, bolder flowers such as bird of paradise.

What are some flowers (or plants) that are suitable for a man? There are many options to choose from such as Bonsai plants (the Braided Money Tree is a popular choice), bamboo, Jade, cactus, Snake plant, Agave, Red Spined African Milk Bush Cactus (not really a cactus), Venus Fly Trap, and Cane plant.

Bamboo is considered a lucky plant, one that attracts happiness, vitality and peace.

Feng Shui plants can increase happiness in anyone's life. Those who embrace Feng Shui and its plants see definite improvements in their lives. Feng Shui plants to consider are the Money Plant or Money Tree, Dwarf Banana plant, Peace Lilies, Jade Plant, Golden Pothos and Peperomia, and Silver Waves or Silver Crown.

No matter what plant you select, make sure that it is cared for properly, and in just the right environment. It is important to understand how to properly water and maintain a plant in order for it to grow and be a part of his life for a very long time.

Ultimately, the gift of flowers or plants for a man is a thoughtful gesture. Perhaps he needs some sprucing up in his apartment or house; a plant that suits the décor would be the perfect choice. A flower bouquet with a particular themed vase such as baseball, football, cars or trucks makes for a great get-well or just because gift for him. Avoid using pastel colored or girly vases but rustic, wooden vases or boxes for the flowers or plants.

Plants and flowers are more than aesthetic pleasing items that may look good in his living room but a representation of feelings. Hopefully, he will understand that a plant is a living organism and needs to be treated with respect. While plants cannot talk back, it is important to engage with the plant while feeding it, not only water and plant food, but good vibes as well.

Flowers or plants for the man in your life is something to give serious consideration. Whether the plant is a simple gesture of your love or something to make his living space more appealing, or both, quality plants and flowers that are man friendly are hard to dislike.
