A Man Does Need A Guide To Buying Flowers

Most of the men don’t know much about flowers. There might, of course, be a few exceptions! But most men don’t understand what it is about flowers, that makes women happy. Some men even think that flowers are just stupid- they are very expensive, they don’t last long and add no value whatsoever to your life. Some men think giving flowers is an outdated ritual or a boring cliche.
In fact, they don’t even understand why women expect flowers for some occasions in the first place. However, men need to remember that it is not about what they feel about buying and gifting flowers. It is about what the receiver will feel when gifted a bunch of pretty flowers. So here is a little guide for confused men about flowers.

Flowers can make your lady really happy
Men should not only buy flowers for women, but also make the effort to find out their favorite ones. The women are sure to appreciate the effort, the thought and the gesture when gifted their favorite flowers. The smile that comes on their face is a real, heart-warming smile which is just what a man wants to see. And this happiness is sure to bring forth many other rewarding moments.
You will prove that you are really smart
Only a smart man will send flowers to his lover’s/ wife’s workplace. Not only will he earn her undying love, but also admiration and envy from her peers. He could also build better connections with other people at his significant other’s workplace, which could boost his career, too.
Flowers can help mend small mistakes
Men think that forgetting dinner dates or anniversaries or breaking a promise are all ‘small mistakes’ while women consider these nothing less than sins. So if a man has committed any of these, getting some nice flowers and saying sorry can help them wash their sins away and get the love back in their lives. Flowers are the best remedies to resolve these small conflicts!
For women, flowers mean a lot. For them, when a man gives them flowers, it means that he thinks about her and wants her to know that. Buying a woman flowers is a connotation that she is special for the man. They feel the happiest if they receive flowers when they don’t expect any.
Remember, just as you can win a man’s heart with good food, you can win a woman’s heart with flowers.

Floral Trends – Rosy Ride Across The World

Nothing can match flowers and floral arrangements when it comes to adding that special touch to any occasion. Whether a formal official function or an informal gathering of friends and family, a birthday or a wedding, a college passing out party or a celebration for a new job, a friendship or a romance, a gesture of jubilation or a condolence -  every feeling and every occasion is fit to be complemented with flowers.


When deciding about the kind of floral arrangements or kind of flowers you want to have for a particular occasion, it is a good idea to get information about the latest floral trends and plan your arrangements accordingly. If you find that a daunting task, here are some useful inputs that you can put to good use.
Floral trends are dynamic and evolving constantly. Changing floral trends, floral varieties and designing styles require that you need to keep up with the latest trends to create eye-catching and impressive arrangements, which will be the talking-point of the occasion. And there cannot be better option than rose, the flower which comes is several colors and can be used for any occasion. So make the most of roses to achieve that perfect look and ambience.
The most popular of all looks is the most romantic, garden-look, which makes use of blushing roses arranged against a slightly pale background so that the roses stand out. The roses are obviously pink or white or somewhere in between, not the striking red ones. A lighter pink or ivory or even grey background works very well with such arrangements.
All white or pastels are also very popular. When going for pastels, choose from lavender, peach, blushing pink or butter yellow. They look very beautiful and add an element of soothing calm to the surroundings. Some other accessories like candles and greens can also be added to make the arrangement look more earthy and warm.
For the quirky, a combination of bright yellow and fuchsia is perfect. White and purple together look regal. For the vintage look, blushing pink or coral roses are the best choice. For a softer, laidback look, white and pink make the perfect option. Pink and gold combined also look great and lend that ethnic look. The number of combinations that can be tried with roses of different colors is endless – it all depends on the look you want to create.
It is also important to creatively add other elements of décor like candles, candelabras, sheer curtains, delicate looking centerpieces, and such things. The containers available for the flowers arrangements are also as varied and as pretty as the roses themselves. Square and rectangular vases, antique silver vases, vases with a touch of gold, clusters of candles, multi-layered centerpieces- all of them add to the beauty of the floral arrangements.  
Now that you know about the latest floral trends, take you pick from these ideas and create the perfect ambience for the occasion coming up.
