    Take them home for me!  However, I travel to various buildings/offices for work, so if I didn't, I wouldn't get to see them again for a week.  I think if they were from my DH, I would take them home regardless, though.

    I always take them home, FI loves it when I come home with the flowers that he sent me. The one time that I forgot them at work he was crushed.

    I have my own office and dh and I work at the same place so unless it was a weekend I'd probably just enjoy them on my desk.

    I have always wished I worked in an office or somewhere stationary because I would love to be surprised with flowers at work! I would then take them home to enjoy them there... or if I had an office I might leave them there so I can stare at them at work all week.

    I'd probably leave them in my office lol. But I also walk to/from work and see transporting them home to be a huge hassle, plus I don't have much decoration there so flowers would be nice :)

    Last year I had to leave them at work because they were too tall (no I am not kidding) to take home and people that I did not even know at work came to see them

    He says he is topping them this year - kind of scared and intrigued at the same time

    Last years flowers - orchids. roses. stargazer lilies, was flowers and flowering branches

    It's sort of a 50/50 for me - I spend more time at the office, so it's nice to see them, but I have a small desk and work at a dirty construction office.

    Give them to someone at work?  I'm allergic to flowers though.

    I'll take them home, and usually bring back a little part of them in a smaller vase to set on my desk, on the rare occasion I actually get them. (not complaining! Just sayin'!)

    @unixfairy:  WOW that thing is huge!

    I'd leave them at work so I can stare at them all day! But if it was over a weekend, I'd take them home.

    I "work" (aka student free labor) at a hospital so there's no way I'd be able to keep them in the x-ray department. I doubt he'd even be allowed to have them delivered there. No work flowers for me.... ever.

    I work at a bar and on a horse farm so FI wouldn't send me flowers to those places, but if he did I would bring them home...

    Funny story though, before I was officially with FI (I still shared an apt with my ex and things were really complicated-- ex was still trying to make things work, I was over it) FI sent me flowers where I worked at the time AND one of my ex's friends had a huge crush on me and HE had flowers sent to my work... I felt so bad about all of my "admirer's" that I left the flowers at work so my ex wouldn't go all balistic on me... It was just awkward, but looking back now it's funny. I should have brought them home just to rub it in his face that there were other guys out there who treated me better.  lol

    I'll usually keep them at work until the weekend then I'll take them home unless its something that I think will look good in a certain spot at my house.

    Our cat eats just about any flowers that come into our house so they stay at my office. DH and I work for the same company though, so it's easy enough for him to come see them if he really wants to.
