Founder
Henry Kimber
Henry Kimber is a gardener, founder and developer based in London. He has spent the past decade working across horticulture, garden retail and plant culture — collaborating with the Garden Museum, Kew Gardens, Patch Plants, Bloom & Wild and Interflora, and building Herboo, a seed brand stocked at some of Britain’s most respected garden destinations.
He gardens enthusiastically if imperfectly, with a particular fondness for salvias, unusual perennials and a Pelargonium. Before turning to plants and tech development, he spent fifteen years in fashion and luxury goods, working with Burberry, Ralph Lauren and Richemont, an experience that shaped how he thinks about provenance, quality and the story behind the things people choose to buy.
Fenn Plants brings that thinking to British horticulture: a marketplace and app built around the nurseries, growers and specialists who have the eye, skill and experience to grow beautiful plants.
