A hothouse flower is flower that isn't hardy enough to grow under natural conditions. It has to be pampered and grown in a greenhouse or hothouse.

In regard to people it's used to describe someone who needs pampering or special conditions.

(Nicholas Nickleby, 1838)"Mrs. Witterly is of a very excitable nature, very delicate, very fragile, a hothouse plant."

On an episode of "Frazier," Frazier was complaining about various things that bothered him. His father said, "Aren't you the little hothouse orchid."
