But my concern goes beyond that. I don't believe in gifting flowers because it's simply... horrific. Have you imagined the human equivalent of cut flowers?

Cruelty of Gifting Flowers
My brother recently graduated, and people gifted him a bunch of decorative items made out of flowers. My mom commented that flowers look beautiful, but it's difficult to know what to do with them once gifted. Personally, I don't understand the continued popularity of gifting flowers. Sure, they may look pleasing to the eyes, but, for the most part, they hold no practical value. It's not like one can transfer data using the thorn of a rose. And then there's the problem of risking allergic reaction. Also, how about leaving the recipient in a predicament about how to get rid of the flowers?
But my concern goes beyond that. I don't believe in gifting flowers because it's simply... horrific. Have you imagined the human equivalent of cut flowers?
I rest my case.

We understand and perhaps you are right in some ways but the reason behind to gift flowers is your feelings and we think nothing is above than this, if someone loves, misses you, cares for you and you are far from him, and you willing to tell her how much I love you?
Then flowers can help at that time, whether a gift is expensive or cheap it doesn't matter definitely not! if something matter is the emotions.
So, say flowers (then, now and forever)...
Thank you for your thought. Though you might want to note the "WaitWhat?" label on the post, which means this isn't a serious point, haha.
I do value the aesthetic appeal of flowers and also how gifting them can convey the feeling of love. =)
