My views are: it is nice for guys to give girls flowers, however, I would appreciate it even more if guys gave girls plants instead (those plants can be flowers too... or anything long lasting) Because I believe any gift you give to your significant other is a reflection of your relationship, just giving flowers which may wither after 7 days is not very practical and only memories of that "occasion" linger for a very short time. BUT if you received a plant, not only should you take care of it (watering, feeding it, caring for it, etc) it also symbolizes your relationship with that person, your relationship must be cultivated (with time, energy, etc) AND it is much more practical (since it lasts WAY longer than ordinary stem flowers).
BESIDES, isn't it a pity when you receive flowers, not only are they expensive (I believe the latest price is $8 per stem), the social norm expects you to buy at least 12 stems (12 x 8 = 72 +taxes) and it doesn't even last long.
So I would much prefer if a guy would give me a plant (obviously a "good looking" one) instead of a dozen of roses.
I don't know... maybe I'm just a weird girl! XD... what do you think?
