Love is in the air in Birmingham, and Valentine’s Day is just around the corner!

At Norton’s Florist, we have a variety of gifts that are the perfect way to show him how much you care.

Our 5 Favorite Valentine’s Gifts for Men

1. Sunflowers

Sunflowers are a wonderful choice for men. They’re lovely and natural, but also bright and cheerful. Taking the beauty of sunflowers to the next level, our Hollywood floral design is perfect for the man you love. Paired with black calla lilies, spider mums, roses, and more this arrangement combines high-design with a natural, rustic appeal.

2. Roses

Roses are excellent for both men and women. Red roses symbolize romantic love, which makes them the classic choice on Valentine’s Day, but every color of rose communicates a different type of affection. If you have all sorts of different affections for your man, consider sending him a multicolored bouquet of roses, like our Heat Wave design, to show him all the ways you love him.

3. Succulents

If your man has a relentless schedule, then a low-maintenance gift is essential. Succulents require hardly any maintenance and rarely need to be watered, making them perfect for anyone who has limited free time. They’re also lovely and interesting to look at. Our most popular Succulent Garden features a variety of plants artfully planted in a contemporary ceramic container.

4. Sports

If you’re in love with a real man’s man, then we suggest sending a hardy green plant. It’ll give his home or office a calm, relaxing vibe, while also purifying and replenishing the air. If your guy loves sports, our Football Planter is the perfect choice. It includes a delightful dieffenbachia in a ceramic football-shaped container.

5. Orchids

Orchids are one of the most diverse plants, with nearly 30,000 species growing worldwide. Our favorite for men is the Phalaenopsis orchid. This orchid’s pure-white blooms are alluring beautiful in our Opulent Orchids design.

Why You Should Seriously Consider Getting Flowers for Your Guy

Flowers might seem like an unusual recommendation for a man’s gift, but science seems to think otherwise. Studies have shown that men who receive flowers become more open and communicative, they make better eye contact, and they stand closer to those around them. So, if you’re hoping to enjoy a few intimate moments with your significant other this Valentine’s Day, we suggest sending him flowers.

How to Choose a Floral Arrangement for a Man

When selecting a floral arrangement for a man, we usually suggest skipping pink and pastel colors in favor of more saturated, masculine tones. Vibrant colors and monochromatic color palettes are always great for men. Men also typically prefer more contemporary floral designs that are compact and have strong, clean lines.
