It’s important to celebrate everyone for who they are, no matter what their gender is. Traditionally, men gave flowers to women. We have evolved into complex human beings, and the traditional man is no more as we grow as individuals. Men are emotional and want their partners to pamper them as much as women. The shift in gender roles has allowed more open communication and appreciation between all couples. So, without further ado, let’s get started and find the perfect flowers to send a man!
What Is the Best Time to Give Flowers to a Man?

Men of all ages love flowers, and there are many options. Any man will appreciate roses, regardless of the occasion or his personality. For the happy-go-lucky guy, send fun, vibrant gerbera daisies. If your man is the rustic type, send sunflowers. If he is passionate and romantic, peonies, but send hydrangeas if he is emotional. The exotic man will appreciate and enjoy tropical flowers such as pin cushions, calla lilies, and birds of paradise.
Father’s Day
Send flowers and honor your father and any other father figures on Father’s Day. In case you did not know- the best choice for your father would be roses, as they are the official flower of Father’s Day. The perfect gift would be vivid-colored roses, not red roses, because they symbolize romantic love.
Birthdays
You can give a man any flowers on his birthday. If you know his favorite flower or colors, send them to him! Mix the flower selection with various bunches of flowers and greenery for him to create his own bouquet. Or, if you don’t know his favorite flower, send him flowers that highlight his birth month or reflect his unique style and personality.
Celebrating Anniversaries
Women expect to receive flowers on anniversaries, but men also love and appreciate receiving flowers on anniversaries! Send an anniversary bouquet based on the anniversary year and add a men’s gift such as a fun mug, teeshirt, or baseball hat. Not sure what type of flowers to give him? Remember, red roses are always appropriate for the romantic guy! Find out more about flower meanings and color.
Valentine’s Day
Valentine’s Day is a romantic time of year! Send your man red roses, which are always appropriate for Valentine’s Day. In traditional romantic love symbols, red roses represent romance, while orange roses signify passion and energy. Other flowers in deep red or orange hues, such as tulips, lilies, orchids, can convey the same message without being as traditional. Find out what each rose color means here.
Promotions
Flowers symbolize success, prosperity, and victory when congratulating a man on a promotion. There are amaryllis, daisies, and gladiolus flowers among these. Pick purple flowers as they represent prosperity, wealth, and nobility, which are also appropriate symbolic sentiments for marking a promotion. Mix with other tones of purple or vibrant hues!
Sympathy
White flowers are traditionally an appropriate sympathy gift to express your deep condolences. White flowers symbolize mourning and sympathy. Select flowers like lilies, mini calla lilies, white roses or carnations. They are a reminder of the deceased’s innocence and the hope that they will be at peace in the afterlife.
