Orchids are typically associated with feminine beauty, but they’re actually a wonderful choice for men precisely because they are so attractive.

Why Flowers Might Be the Best Gift You Ever Give Your Guy for Valentine’s Day
Firstly, although it might not be a well-known fact, men like flowers just as much as women. Plus, giving your guy flowers could result in the best Valentine’s Day you’ve ever had. Studies show that men who receive flowers can become more communicative and open. They make increased eye contact, and they tend to stand closer to those around them. So, if you’re hoping for more than a few intimate moments this Valentine’s Day, we strongly recommend giving your boyfriend or husband flowers.
How to Select a Floral Arrangement for a Man
Choosing a floral gift for a man can be tough — especially if you don’t know what kind of flowers he prefers. Sticking to some basic guidelines will help. For example, unless you know that your man loves pink and other pastels, it’s usually best to avoid them because they’re typically viewed as more feminine. Instead, choose a design that includes darker, jewel-toned colors, vibrant primaries, or a monochrome color palette. Men also tend to prefer minimalist designs. Look for a compact design with strong, clean lines.
If you still aren’t sure what to get your guy for Valentine’s Day, don’t worry! Our experts at Mancuso’s Florist are always happy to help. Whether you order online, in person, or over the phone, we’ll provide you with expert advice and personalized recommendations to make sure you find the perfect Valentine’s gift for your sweetheart.
