Chocolates and jewelry are old hat when it comes to buying the special lady in your life a gift.

If you really want to impress her, an English gardening pro suggests buying lingerie made from fresh flowers.

Daily Mail reports Lucy Summers Living uses fresh flowers in its bra and underwear designs and hand-stitches them together, a purchase that costs upward of $750 per pair.

Each set lasts about 48 hours and is delivered in customized “cool” boxes.

According to the designer, Lucy Summers, flowers are often used to convey emotion. In this case, romantic roses in the shape of delicate underthings add a new level to the gift.

Summers says the pieces are the "ultimate sweep-a-girl-off-her-feet" gifts.

Because Summers' floral lingerie is handmade, each piece is customizable.

One word: stems.

...few things say, "I love you," like waking up to a bed of crushed berries and thorns.
