Gladioli -- if they're all gay.

Hon, the gift that the guys would appreciate most would be a couple home-baked chocolate-chip cookies! Sorry, but most guys are still uncomfortable with the idea of ladies giving flowers to men. And appearance-enhancing items - such as shaving gear - are a bit too intimate for co-workers. Go with the cookies.

Coming from a guy who works in an office, here are a few ideas that wont break your bank:
1. A coffee or tea mug.
2. A cool plastic water tumbler.
3. A small flashlight for those times they need to crawl under their desk to fix something on their computer.
4. A clever pen or mechanical pencil.
5. A $5 card to Starbucks assuming one is near your new office.

Guys are great, in that they are easy! Bake a batch of cookies or some scones, put it near the coffee pot with a sign. There's nothing like a little home cooking to welcome someone home (cute idea BTW), and guys will appreciate it more than anything else.

I definitely wouldst y a man flowers. I'm male.Buy them something Tye would appreciate. Unless they are feminine/homosexual/bi?
Try a very small bottle of aftershave or two cans of beer? A shot of spirit in a small bottle? Chocolates?
Good luck

Cookies are nice, but the best gift for a guy is a nice big summer sausage.

listen to the previous answers. cookies are a great idea, any simple foods that you can hand off are great too, but chocolates might be pushing it... unless its some kinda manly chocolate. shot glasses and those little bottles of sampler liquers are good if theyre into those sorts of things.

give them a coffee cup full of candy! or a desk plant .. not a flower, but a plant. Most men in my office think it's gay to get flowers ... then again they're all homophobes. Anywho... i find that candy goes over well with them .. try it!

I think that guys will see you giving them a flower as a question of their masculinity. Maybe a cofee mug would be better? Or a mousepad? Or a notepad?
