Okay, first an explanation of the situation. I am currently seeing a girl and her birthday is fast approaching. We aren't completely serious, but we have gone out together and have been talking and getting to know one another the past 6 months or so.
So I would like to do something for her birthday. Just a small gesture. I am thinking of getting a vintage-style New York City wall calendar (because she loves the city). But I feel that I should do a little something more than just a calendar. I was thinking flowers (not roses). Would this be appropriate for a birthday gift? And if so, which type of flower would work best (again, not roses)?
Please let me hear your thoughts and ideas on the subject. I am planning on getting the gifts by Monday, her birthday is on a Friday. Thanks!

I am sort of leaning against roses... I know they don't indicate commitment or proposals all the time, but I don't think her and I are that romantically involved yet. So I, personally, would feel weird with roses. I just want to do a simple gesture for her birthday.
I wasn't thinking about dinner for her birthday. Since we won't be able to see eachother on her actual birthday, but that doesn't mean I can't take her out on another day for a birthday dinner. In fact, that sounds like a realy good idea.
Any other thoughts on the flower idea? Tulips? I like the sunflower idea. Just want to make sure I am not sending mixed messages either.
