Rebecca Chambers opened The Shopkeeper's Daughter, in St Neots, in November 2021, and sells a variety of house plants. Her aim was to provide something different for the town and says she has many customers looking for a special plant as a gift..

Rebecca said: “I have tried to please everyone with the range of plants I sell, I have cacti, Calatheas, some Severas, but most importantly I wanted to make people not afraid to care for plants. “My philosophy is anyone can keep a house plant alive, you just need the right instruction. That is basically my mission - to get St Neots green.”

Rebecca explained the most popular plant is a Euphorbia lactea. It is a hybrid and it's also structural and pretty; they are the sort of plant that makes a great present

Rebecca revealed the meaning behind the shop’s name, “My mum and dad moved to St Neots from London when my mum was pregnant with me. We used to live above M&S which was previously Liptons which my Dad ran. “He has always had shops, which how my shop got its name.
