Orchids huh? I'm a huge fan, but they seem like a risky choice, mostly because I don't think most people know what to do with them!
Oh, I'll bring more than just flowers, hun. :wink: But yeah, please go sometime! :smile: On top of being absolutely beautiful, it's one of the few times you can get drunk and be naughty right out in the open in Japan. There is definitely some "horseplay" going on out there... it's just a natural progression from being at such a romantic event.
BTW, loving your new avatar, stacy! Ain't nothin' wrong with that.

if someone ever gave me carnations - i would either laugh or cry. either way, not a good thing...
if you have a whole foods or fresh market, they usually have great (and classic/classy) flowers for decent prices. if you're challenged in the department, take the time to go to a florist and get advice...
the ole' saying "something is better than nothing" doesn't apply to flowers - because the whole point of sending/giving them, is to get that wow effect. not an eek.
on that note, my fave's: red roses, lilies (color is usually better than white), orchids (flowers are better than a plant if you're receiver isnt a greenthumb), hydrangea, peonies, and cymbidium orchids.
good luck!

I do, though I tend to like other things as well. Actually, I'd probably rather receive a plant of some sort over cut flowers. It could be something for indoors in a pot, an arrangement for the patio, or a pot of wildflowers for the garden.
What are your favorite flowers to receive from your lover/significant other and why?
I like carnations, blue hydrangeas (very hard to find), sunflowers, black-eyed susans, various wildflowers, etc. In the plant department, you can never go wrong with lavender or ivy. I see and photograph flowers so much that I get tired of the old standbys. I do, however, still love peach or pink roses.
I like plants because I can watch them grow and nurture them. I know they will last more than a few days. However there's nothing quite like the smell and color of cut flowers.
I'm a baby pink mixed with red kinda girl when it comes to flowers. It's one of my few girly indulgences.
Stick a single rose (sans thorns!) in your urethra. Disrobe at the door.

This thread is a little sad. So many women never receiving flowers... Anyway, the idea to ask other women which flowers to present your own is rather weird. Sometimes I give my gf a flower I've done myself with paper, an origami.
