Sexy Flowers to Grow or Give as Holiday Gifts

Julia Bodeeb
Some flowers have an exotic and erotic look. Just seeing certain flowers awakens the sensuality. Flowers that offer bright colors, amazing scent and intricate shapes evoke passion.

Orchid

The orchid is a delicate flowering plant. It is a tropical flower that is often grown indoors. Its flowers come in a wide range of deeply colorful and exotic and also pale colors. Each flower has fragile flowers in complicated shapes that show the beauty of nature.

This plant seems intensely feminine. Its delicate branches and showy flowers remind us that some things need to be treated gently.

An orchid is a wonderful gift for someone who loves flowers. When the orchid is blooming inside it makes the winter outside seem less harsh. Giving someone a gift of an orchid brings the tropics to them and adds a sexy focus point to any room.

Hibiscus

The hibiscus tree is a lush plant. It is covered with colorful flowers with a large stamen. The brightly colored flowers set a tropical tone to any room. The hibiscus tree is planted in the ground or grown in large pots outside. It can be brought inside in a pot during the winter months and will continue to bloom inside as winter rages outside.

Wearing a hibiscus flower in the hair gives any woman a chance to feel flirty. This flower is intensely feminine. A hibiscus tree in full bloom will brighten any mood. The bright flowers are joyful and lush.

Daylily

The daylily is a flower that blooms profusely. It is easy to grow a bed of day lilies that will make a big visual impact. Daylilies are available in a wide range of bright colors. A bed of daylilies in a mix of red, yellow and orange brings a sensual joy to anyone who spots them. Bright colors are exotic, tropical and put people in a joyful mood.

Seeing a patch of daylilies is like a vacation to somewhere where the flowers are always in bloom. So, if someone likes to garden, a basket full of day lily bulbs is a wonderful gift. Planting the bulbs together makes the gift even more special.

Roses

Roses that have a pleasing scent awaken sensuality. The aroma of a rose is pleasing to most people. A rose bush or cut roses with scent are always a sexy gift. Whether male or female, roses awaken passion in most people.

Giving out rose bushes or planting a rose garden for someone is a very sexy gift. Romantic evening strolls through the rose garden are an ongoing gift that will bring much pleasure.

    Speaking of sex and flowers: the word orchid comes from the word for "testicle." I have a friend who refers to her orchids as her "ladies." I refer to mine as my "gentlemen."
