Christmas busier than Mother's Day, florist says

John R Thomas Florist in Church Stretton, Shropshire, experienced a busy Christmas season, with staff working long hours to fulfill orders. Despite not winning the British Florist Association award, the shop received increased orders and community support. The shop, celebrating its 40th year, is seeing strong demand for Christmas bouquets and arrangements, surpassing Mother's Day and Valentine's Day in busy-ness.
