When Father’s Day is just around corner, you might be despairing of what to get your dad for his special day. Sending flowers to moms for Mother’s Day is customary, so why not send dad some flowers? Not only are flowers a great way to show that you care, but they are easy and convenient gift choices when you choose to buy flowers online from the comfort of your home or office. Plus, contrary to popular belief, many men like plants just as much as women do. You just have to know the right types of flowers to send to a man. When you’re getting ready to order flowers online for dads, try to select from some of the more masculine flower arrangements available. The following guide will help give you an idea of the types of flowers to look for when you’re browsing an online flower delivery service like the one we offer here at May Flower.

Tropical Flowers

Tropical flowers are among the most popular types of flowers to send to dads. They tend to have smaller blooms and evergreen foliage, making them more masculine than flowers with larger blooms. Tropical flowers like orchids, bonsais, and bromeliads can provide dads with the relaxing feeling a tropical escape. Plus, they’re relatively low maintenance, so they can be placed in dens, man caves and offices since they don’t require as much direct sunlight or water as some other types of plants.

Flowering Plants

If your dad tends to have a green thumb and likes caring for plants and watching them flourish, then you might want to consider getting your dad a flowering plant. There are numerous types of flowering plants to choose from, such as gardenias and azaleas. You can even get your dad roses. When getting a man flowering plants, though, you might want to select flowers that are his favorite color, sport the colors of his favorite sports team or are the color of his birthstone. For instance, if your dad’s favorite sports team’s colors are orange and white, then you could customize him an arrangement of orange and white roses or other orange and white flowers. Such an arrangement would bring a bit of life to his space, and he’d probably be more inspired to tend to the flowers once he understands the significance behind them and the thought that you put into their selection.

Plant Bouquets

Yet another masculine option, you could choose to order flowers online that are simply plant bouquets. Perfect examples of these types of arrangements include twisted bamboo, philodendrons, ivy plants and even ponytail palms that have the appearance of orchids in the shape but are actually miniature palm tree bonsai plants.

Add-Ons

At May Flower, there are a variety of add-ons that you can also send along with flowers. For instance, add tasty treats like chocolates or cake, or send fruit or an assortment of snacks. Additionally, consider sending dad an online flower delivery of a teddy bear made out of flowers, or order a Ferrero Rocher Chocolate bouquet. You can even schedule online delivery of flowers along with a gourmet hamper, or send the gourmet hamper as a stand-alone gift. No matter whether your want to send flowers in India, the UK or the USA, May Flower is your one-stop destination for flowers for dad.
