4. Sending a Gift Like Flowers
In a classic case of supply and demand, the price of roses peaks on Valentine's Day. Women may be used to receiving flowers on birthdays and anniversaries. They may even quickly notice the presence of flowers on these occasions. But flowers given for no reason other than "I was thinking of you today" make higher impact because they are unexpected .
Try Something New

Flowers Are Never Boring
Because of their infinite diversity and unique appeal , flowers can be given time and time again without losing their "specialness." Each new floral arrangement is a fresh and individual declaration of appreciation 4 -- reflecting positively 5 on your imagination and thoughtfulness.
Flowers Don't Have to Mean Commitment
Relax guys. Women know when an arrangement simply means you care.
Get professional help
Selecting flowers may be a bewildering experience for the uninitiated man. Fortunately, help is available: the local flower shop can create an affordable 6 and personalized flower arrangement.
