From what I have read pertaining to the meaning and symbolism attached to orchids, the person who gives a gift of orchids is expressing not only his love, but also his respect for the girl of his dreams. His choice of orchids also speaks of his admiration and he is paying the recipient the highest form of compliment, I feel, when he buys her orchids. Orchids are also universally recognized as the perfect conveyor of the message of love and thoughtfulness.

Nature's Messenger of Love
give her your heart
express your sincere regard
orchids speak of love
cattleya's thoughtful charm
will bring her to your arms
to reciprocate your love
send her purple orchids galore
this says her rare beauty you adore
that's how you captivate your love
shower her with orchids exotic
bewitch her with its delicate mystique
then you'll be worthy of her love

sponge in the wonder
thank nature for she creates
orchids in the breeze
