There is
a rich, beautiful, complex, and diverse narrative being told by African
Americans and other persons of color in the floral marketplace. It is long past
time to recognize their excellence and contributions to cut flower farming
and floristry. Garden writer, podcaster, and blogger Teresa
J. Speight of Cottage in the Court shares her interviews
and profiles with leading pioneers and explores their lives rooted in the
floral world.
