I say sod the tradition - he can be the one buying the flowers. Will get my thinking cap on for ideas. Have you thought about a night/weekend away?

We just ended up with cards and a meal out for our anniversary recently

A plant for the garden? (If you've got one?!) There might be a variety of something that is called something meaningful for the two of you...?

Hmmm...other than that I'm out of inspiration...

Def let Ian buy you the flowers! As I was 38 weeks pregnant at our 4th anniversary I think we ended up in basingstoke for a meal, and the treat was I didn't have to drive

What did you end up getting him Nessa?

I've been facing the same problem, what do you get a man when the anniversary is "fruit and flowers". So, I've solved my problem - I've bought him a grape vine in one of the wineries here in Victoria (you get it for 3 yrs) and a bottle of wine from the winery. He likes red wine, so this way he gets flowers (on his grape vine - which has a plaque and you can visit) then fruit, then best of all - booze from fruit!!!
