How to give flowers to men and when to do it

Although it is not a common practice, many men appreciate the beauty of nature and will be happy to receive a bouquet. However, you should also follow certain rules of etiquette to prevent possible disappointment. SSPDaily has told you about some aspects that you should pay attention to.

First, it would be worthwhile to find out in advance how a man feels about bouquets. If you know him well and are sure that he likes flowers, then it will be a good idea to make such a pleasant surprise. However, if you are giving flowers for the first time, it is better to do it in private, without witnesses, to avoid possible embarrassment.

Rules of etiquette for giving flowers to men

• If the gift was prepared by a woman, it is desirable that the man be older than her.

• If one man gives flowers to another, he should shake hands as a sign of respect.
• The reason for the gift should be good.
• Give preference to traditionally "male" flowers when choosing a bouquet.
• When handing over the bouquet, accompany it with a few warm words.

It is important to note that violation of these rules will not lead to any negative consequences. Regardless of whether the recipient is younger or older, it is absolutely normal to express your gratitude with flowers to your beloved husband, godson or nephew, regardless of their age.
