Who would have thought that of all the places you could start an aquatic plant nursery, it would be in your mother's spare room? For David Reynolds, this is exactly where he found himself in 2016. His mother, Dawn Fisher, remembers it well. “David was studying for a degree in computer science and one day was asked to help clear out a lake. Instead of throwing all the oxygenator plants away, he sold them on the internet and, not long after, decided to set up a plant nursery,” she says. “I was soon growing seeds in my guest room and in the garden. It was crazy really.” From that day, Lincolnshire Pond Plants was established and began selling the whole gamut of aquatic and marginal plants.
Like all good businesses, this is a family affair born of drive and ambition. David
