Flowers You Can Give to a Guy

Phalaenopsis, the scientific name for orchids, are our top pick for a contemporary or masculine vibe. Their crisp, clean, and simple lines add visual interest without the fluff. Especially unique is the yellow star orchid pictured below. The orchids we are known for are hand delivered from growers in North Carolina and Southern Florida. They deliver flowers to shops all over, but come here first, giving us the opportunity to offer greater size and variety than big box and hardware stores.

Though Orchids are usually equated with being high maintenance, they are actually rather simple to care for, as they are best watered twice a week and then left alone, making this low maintenance flower perfect for forgetful men, or any one who wants a beautiful plant that's easy to care for.
