Think plants are just for making your home a bit greener? Think again. It goes without saying that we’re obsessed plants here at Beards & Daisies – so, of course, we’re keen to incorporate them into all areas of our life – and that extends to our bathroom shelves, too.

Today – 17th February – marks Random Acts of Kindness Day – a entire day dedicated to the simplicity and selflessness of being nice to someone just because. A sentiment that should really be celebrated and incorporated into every day life, but sometimes we all became far too caught up with our own lives and problems that we lose sight of this. With the pandemic sadly far from over, we think kindness is the tonic we could all do with a dose of right now, so to mark this positive day, here are five ways to spread the love.

Forget Valentine's Day, Pancake Day which follows two days later is arguably the best day of February! So to mark the occasion we'll be making as much pancake batter as our stomachs can handle with these delicious recipes courtesy

The pandemic has undoubtedly changed the way we work, with many of us now working remotely so we can stay at home in accordance with lockdown rules. In the world of the ‘new normal’, Zoom meetings, dining table desk set-ups and a commute that stretches no more than a mere few steps.

A delicious meal is the perfect way to mark the most romantic day of the year, no matter what your relationship status is. Behind plants (of course!), food is our one true love, so time to whip up a storm with these vegetarian meals from Hello Fresh.

Ahhhh January. It’s a love-hate relationship.

As we hurtle into winter and the colder months, it's important to take some extra measures to make sure your plants are happy and well. We've put together our top tips to keep your green pals in tip top condition, whatever the weather. 

The Picea Conica tree is a plant that can be moved to the garden once the festive season is over to thrive all year around. Also known as the dwarf Alberta spruce, this tree is very carefree and you don’t need to be particularly green fingered to ensure it grows well outdoors, either. 

If we take anything from 2020, it’s how to keep ourselves amused when confined to the same four walls. Yep, it’s officially been the year of staying at home, and although good news of the Covid vaccines is reassuring us that there is light at the end of the tunnel, we’re not out the woods just yet. Undoubtedly, Christmas is going to be a bit different for everyone this year. And usually, when we have days of annual leave, we stuff them full of plenty of plans and people to catch up with. 

The past year will largely be remembered as the time we all pressed pause. As coronavirus swept across the globe, it forced us to change the way we live in so many ways. Nations locked down, countries closed their borders, flights were grounded, offices were shut and the spontaneity of simply popping out the shops or to grab lunch with friends became something we had to organise and plan in advance.

As much as we’d love to take our plants with us to celebrate Christmas, we don’t know how much room we’ll have for them in the car, let alone getting them a seat the train.

The marantaceae family (which includes calathea, maranta, stromanthe and many other ‘prayer plants’) is a big old plant family. Many of them are recognised by the fact they close their leaves up at night time, and lower them during the day.

2020 was officially the year our love for houseplants became deeply rooted within our hearts. Besides from sitting pretty within our homes, our green friends certainly earn their keep – they purify the air, keep us calm, boost our mood and can even make us more productive!

It’s no secret that we’ve all changed the way we shop this year, with lockdown forcing traditional bricks and mortar shops to close their doors, while online shopping has taken prominence. We’re also putting our money where our mouth is, and choosing to buy unique items from independent brands a heartfelt ethos. If you want to show your support for the smaller brands this year, here’s our pick of the best to buy your Christmas gifts from.

There’s a plant for everyone, so whether you’re searching for the perfect present for the plant specialist in your life, or something for your office Secret Santa – we’ve got you covered. And whilst we’re proudly the plant folk, offering the biggest range of indoor plants in the UK, greenery isn’t all we do!

And whilst it is tempting to lounge on the sofa and admire your plants all day, you’ll really feel the benefit of scheduling in plans, no matter how small. Here’s five ways to not only occupy yourself, but also to be a little greener this weekend.

If you're one of the lucky ones who's already snapped up our Merry & Bright Tree - here is Liz, one of our lovely Plant Folk, with her top tips to get the best out of yours!

When the temperatures start to drop and the dark nights draw in, we don’t need much convincing to stay inside, snuggle up and get cosy.  Enter ‘hygge’ – the Danish living concept that has taken over homes nationwide, and although it has no literal translation, it’s all about taking pleasure in the things that bring us comfort and contentment.

With us all spending so much time at home this year, and it’s more than likely this will continue to be the case for a little while longer whilst the tier system is in place – we all need something to occupy our minds. And we think getting lost in a good book is a perfect way to pass the time and spend a winter’s evening. 

Biophilic design is a nature-inspired approach to home décor. Essentially, it’s all about connecting the outdoors with the indoors – and it can boost your health and wellbeing in the process

Although it may sound an odd place to keep your green friends, it is actually a great environment for some tropical plants to thrive as the warmth and humidity replicates their natural habitat.
