What to give for a 17th birthday
For a 17th birthday, choose gifts that celebrate growing up: a stylish bouquet for a girl, a useful gadget or an experience for a boy. Flowers complement any gift: try a tender mix of roses and lisianthus or a modern hydrangea bouquet. A sweet or fruit basket suits a boy.
