Meet author and garden extraordinaire Teresa Speight in conversation with horticulturalist Abra Lee as they discuss Black Flora, which celebrates the vibrant legacy and future of Black floral artists and entrepreneurs.

Black Flora is the first book to feature profiles of contemporary Black experts innovating in the world of flowers. Author and longtime gardener, Teresa Speight, offers a beautiful intersection of flowers and community. This book is a homecoming, one that unearths the floral legacies of the past and present, while providing a source of inspiration for younger generations of plant-lovers seeking examples of successful Black floral artists and entrepreneurs. Both a celebration of now and a vision for the future, Black Flora honors floriculture’s creative vanguard. 

Books will be available for sale and signing.
