Recently, my wife got some flowers for her birthday.I know what some of them are, but not others.

In the picture above, I know the gerbera, the cala, and the white oriental lily, at he bottom, but what are those green things, between the two calas?

This one is kind of easy. I know roses and alstromeria.

I have no idea what these big fuzzy things are. The little pink, upper left, is an anthurium.

On this one, I don't know what the red and green stringy/sawtooth things are.

These are some little orchids, but I don't know what kind. I would think epidendrum, or dendrobium.

The green ones are Bells of Ireland. Big fuzzy thing is a Protea.
No idea on the rest!
Hope that helps a bit.

Not a Protea but Banksia hookerana. Very similar though.
