Person
Jo Lambell's love of houseplants began in 2001 when she moved into her first home. After carrying a 6ft Monstera over her shoulder on the bus back from a well-known Swedish home furnishings retailer, she knew there must be a better way of getting plants delivered... which is when she had the idea to start Beards & Daisies. Beards & Daisies is an online plant delivery company, which stocks the biggest selection of houseplants in the UK. Jo believes that plants are the perfect way to update your home or office and is fanatical about plants.
