"song" literally means "to send". that should be accepted, too.

Surely the phrase 送花给 does not translate in English to 'give her flowers', but instead 'send her flowers'. Otherwise it would be 给她花 with no 送. Am I right?

No, it can mean both. At any rate, they are both accepted now.

Why not indeed.
Assuming you go on to translate the other part of the sentence.

Because it's telling you to translate the whole sentence, you've missed "it is her birthday tomorrow" lol

I think this sentence is literally "Tomorrow is her birthday. I would like to send flowers to give to her.", therefore, "Tomorrow is her birthday. I would like to send flowers to her." should be accepted. (The "to give" part is too awkward to include in an English translation.)

she has a birthday tomorrow i want to give her flowers. why not?
It's not natural to say "She has a birthday tomorrow." It should be "Tomorrow is her birthday" or "Her birthday is tomorrow." You always HAVE a birthday. The question is what day your birthday IS.
