Masculine flowers are considered to be callas, gladioluses, roses, tulips, carnations, dahlias, chrysanthemums, gerberas, orchids, anthuriums, lilies. However, there are some peculiarities here. Young men are not given such conservative flowers as roses and carnations. These flowers are more suitable for mature and mature men.
