Birthday flower gifts are one of the best ways of sharing someone’s special day, and showing that you have remembered, and that you care. And if you thought flowers on birthdays were jus for girls, think again! That may have been so a decade ago, but you’d be amazed at how many guys would love a gorgeous arrangement of birthday flowers, whether they are your husband, boyfriend, best friend, father or son. If you are sending to your partner, red roses can be just as right as they would be for a wife or girlfriend. But whoever the man in your life is, vibrant reds, oranges and yellows work well. Think Gerber daisies or carnations – or you could also choose from a wide range of plants and Bonsai trees. Any birth month flower would also work well. Different months of the year have flowers linked with them, just like birthstones. October is the marigold for example, January is the snowdrop. When it comes to bouquets for blokes, pastel colours or arrangements which are too ‘busy’ are probably best avoided. But modern arrangements of flowers, with their clean, strong lines, and a more natural style, are ideal. Go for a “masculine” monochromatic palette, such as dendrobium orchid bouquets in white or purple, or robust sunflower bouquets which are often good flowers for guys.At eFlorist, we work with locally-based florists across the world, and guarantee your hand-delivered, affordable gift will stay fresh for a week.
