Dorset: Valentine's Day florist shares unusual bouquet requests

Dorset Valentines Day florist shares unusual bouquet requests
Florist Fiona Penny shares the more unusual Valentine's requests from her 30 years in the industry.

A thong in a bunch of roses, flowers wrapped in £50 notes and an engagement ring amongst the blooms - some of the more unusual Valentine's requests received by florist Fiona Penny.

As the orders for 14 February come in, bunches of roses, strings of ribbon and piles of cards are filling Ms Penny's studio.

The florist, from Weymouth in Dorset, has been in the business for 30 years.

But she says it's not all sunflowers and roses for the business as Brexit and the cost of living has cast a shadow over the industry's creative work.
