Giving floral gifts
문화적 배경
The 'Odd Number' rule is non-negotiable. Even numbers are for graves. If you buy a pre-made bouquet, count the stems just in case! The 'Cvjetni trg' (Flower Square) is the heart of the city. Buying flowers there before a date is a classic 'Purger' (Zagreb local) move. In coastal regions, wild Mediterranean herbs or flowers like lavender are sometimes included in bouquets, adding a local scent. In eastern Croatia, hospitality is very traditional. Bringing flowers is often paired with bringing a bottle of homemade 'rakija' or wine.
The Vase Rule
When you bring flowers, the host will usually stop everything to find a vase. Don't feel awkward; this is a sign of respect for your gift.
Unwrapping
If the bouquet is in plain plastic, take it off. If it's in beautiful decorative paper, leave it on!

Even Numbers
Seriously, count the stems. Bringing 2 or 4 flowers is a major social blunder in Croatia.
