Why does Gatsby deliver so many goods and services to Nick’s house?

In chapter 5, Gatsby has an abundance of flowers sent to Nick's home and also provides a lawn service to cut Nick's grass in preparation for Daisy's arrival. Gatsby plans on entering Nick's home under the pretense that he is an unexpected guest in order to meet Daisy, who has not seen him in five years. After five years, Gatsby plans on reigniting his relationship with Daisy, who has married Tom Buchanan and currently lives in East Egg. Gatsby has patiently waited for this moment and plans on taking Daisy by surprise but wants to make Nick's home seem welcoming and comfortable when she visits, which is why he has numerous flowers delivered to Nick's home. The meeting goes as planned and Gatsby reconnects with Daisy. After briefly speaking to her at Nick's home, Gatsby takes Daisy on a tour of his extravagant mansion next door.
