Great Green Valentine’s Gifts for Your Guy
Green Globe
1. Terrarium
Terrariums are like small worlds of lush beauty that will do well on a desktop or at home. Our Green Globe terrarium is easy to take care of and will make your guy feel like an expert botanist, as his new plants thrive.
Beachside Succulent Garden
2. Succulents
Succulents are an excellent choice for a man with a busy schedule because they require minimal maintenance but deliver maximum design. We make amazing succulent gardens! Again, bold lines and shapes are best. For a more masculine look, we like to add Alaskan shells, driftwood finds, or interesting rocks. For men, we recommend our Beachside Succulent garden which includes a variety of succulents and a few great accents.
Bromeliad Garden
3. Bromeliads
Members of the pineapple family, these plants have spiky leaves and vibrant colors. For Valentine’s Day, we recommend our Bromeliad Garden which includes three beautiful plants in a sleek container. Your guy can enjoy these low-maintenance plants for years to come.
Orchid Simplicity
4. Orchids
Orchids might not be the first choice that comes to mind when considering a plant for your beau, but they’re actually a wonderful choice. Orchids have an alluring, exotic beauty that will remind him of you when they bloom each winter. For men, we recommend the Phalaenopsis orchids that are included in our Orchid Simplicity design because they feature all-white blooms.
Mahalo
5. Tropical Flowers
Tropical flowers are wonderful for men. They bloom in vibrant, fiery colors and have strangely attractive shapes and textures. Their features make them the perfect choice for the types of contemporary designs which men tend to love. Our Mahalo arrangement features birds of paradise in an arrangement of lush, tropical greenery. This sophisticated design will make your guy feel like he’s been on an island vacation.
Or, Go with Flowers for Your Guy on Valentine’s Day
Men enjoy receiving flowers just as much as women. Plus, giving your man flowers might make for a more romantic Valentine’s Day celebration. Studies have actually shown that men become more open and communicative when given flowers. They also tend to make better eye contact and stand closer to their loved ones. If you’re hoping to spend a truly intimate holiday with your significant other, then we strongly recommend giving him flowers.
How to Choose the Perfect Floral Arrangement for Your Man
Choosing a floral gift for your guy for Valentine’s Day can feel overwhelming at first. We typically recommend avoiding pink or pastel arrangements and choosing primary colors, instead. Men also tend to like the bold lines found in more contemporary designs. Look for a compact design and avoid fluffy, overly perfume-y flowers. Bold roses with masculine greenery are also a wonderful option.
Colorful Cube
