I am half owner of a floral shop (no wise cracks - I ain't gay).
I don't listen to women's complaints when it comes to flowers. They're always wrong. A man can send a woman a $120 arraignment with 18 red roses and she'll find something to complain about it.
In fact, the way a woman responds to flowers is the biggest red flag I know of about what her character is really like. If she doesn't appreciate a $30 arraignment and be grateful, she won't be grateful for anything.
That particular kind of unpleasant ungrateful woman also seems to think if they don't like the arraignment, I'm supposed to send them another arraignment...and they think they're supposed to keep the first one. I never send out another arraignment and I've demanded the first back at the threat of small-claims court (they think they're supposed to get their money back from FTD or Bloomnet or Telefora and still keep the arraignment).
Any man who sends a woman 12 to 18 red roses (roses are the most expensive flowers) is a fool.

Well, since the wimmins seem to like flowers I thought I would pass some out too.

I'm in my forties, full head of hair, 175lbs., a physician, was a NCAA scholarship athlete, really a good catch by traditional terms

You need to add a couple of assets to your list and then you'll have to beat off wimmin with a stick:
A. buy a pair of wire-rim glasses ( =sensitivity) like this guy:
www.youtube.com/watch? v=rj4J6i_vw0w
B. grow a beard but keep it short and clipped - ditto for your hair style - (=gainfully employed) like here:
www.youtube.com/watch? v=AscPOozwYA8
C. also if you can buy a Subaru Outback (=sporty, down to earth) or a small BMW coupe 135i (=cool without being ostentatious) it would be helpful - yes, I know BMW is rear wheel drive and not very practical for Ohio winters, but those cars look mega fun to drive!
D. wearing anything wide wale corduroy (=understated sexy) - Nordstrom's has the best pants!
Do those 4 things and you'll be a shoe-in for Honey Heaven Happily Ever After, guaranteed.

Real men would rather take a beating than wear anything corduroy, anything!

Otoh, if real men want to have their woman purr, they will wear corduroy. If you don't believe me, ask your wife.

There's lots better ways to please a woman.
Even Mrs.L has zero corduroy gear.
Trust me, men don't wear corduroy or plaids (except Pendleton wool); they truly do not.
Seasonal camo-gear is a better bet for judging manliness.

That field reminds me of nicest bouquet I ever bought for wife. It was 12 red roses, 12 irises and baby's breath.
Simple and beautiful.

So who buys the men's corduroy pants at Nordstrom's? They ain't gonna stock 'em if they can't sell 'em.
Lod, seasonal camo is not sexy to unattached females who Lysander wants to get to attract.
Lysander - forget the seasonal camo garb until after the marriage -trust me -then she can't dump you.
Also, black or dark navy blue gabardine wool suits worn with open collared shirts are tres sexy, LS, like this:

For many years now, I've secured two long-stem, yellow roses w/babies-breath, and that works here.

Also, black or dark navy blue gabardine wool suits

I've got that suit in midnight blue, size 56 short, red hair, one eye and a hare-lip.
It ain't working, maybe a hat...

If you will send me the url for it in a pm I will see what I can do with it. No promises but I might be able to fix it.

Glad you liked the one I posted. In the meantime, here is a blue rose you might like.

The wife wanted blue annuals planted out front of her house last spring. Evidently blue flowers are pure unobtainium. I couldn't find anything.

I had a rose bush one time that produced blue roses (not a deep blue but blue nevertheless). Bloomed for one or two seasons and then died I think. It is HARD to grow blue roses.
