After a long nap and the ending of the Tangerine Regime🥳, The Plant Kiki is back in time for the Negro New Year✊🏾! The Kiki goes on and in the interest of pod sustainability(and Colah's sanity) we're getting on a bi-weekly schedule, so love us this week and miss us next week like a toxic relationship.😝
This week on The Plant Kiki:
Kamili has a dark secret for dealing with pests.
Derek wants all the Dr. Sebi smoke...email him!
Fave mall plants: Aglaonema vs. Dieffenbachia
Colah's emotional support plant is petty.
🍃Botanical Black History is unfortunately obscure and we think we know why. On this celebratory return to the air we have a Kiki in observance of Dr. Marie Clark Taylor who earned her PhD in Botany by bustin down them books!🧑🏾🏫
🗣Blackety Black 'soundtrack' disclaimer:
Derek was frying chicken for the ancestors while not missing a beat.
Also, the kids were present aka ...this is real life!👫🏾

In episode one of The Plant Kiki we take some time to get to know our hosts:
Brayan!
Brayan is a botanical enthusiast, budding CANNApreneur and proud Puerto Rican plant Papi! He arrived on the Jersey scene with a love for plants, pizza and all pink EVERYTHING. Well read on Zen Meditation and Taoism, Brayan is a true nature spiritualist legend. Our @brother.earthh is here to show us how become one with nature and look good doing it.
Gloria!Gloria works in communications and is a freelance writer/editor based out of Canada. A Beyoncé historian and staunch nap enthusiast, she is the tongue-popping personality behind @blackgirlrooted. When Gloria’s not writing (or napping), she’s probably tending to her plants. Or buying a new one. And that's what? Period!
Kamili!
Kamili is our OG plant ma and the comic book, star wars-harry potter-#DemThrones lovin Blerd behind 2 dope IG pages: @PlantBlerd and @BlackPeople.W/Plants. She lives in New York with her Blerdy family. When Kamili isn’t nose deep in a book or styling beautiful interior/exterior plantscapes for clients she’s cutting up online or chopping and propping her plant babies.
Derek!
Derek is a WHOLE chocolate botanist! This plant daddy is from DurHAM, NC where he serves his community and in the house of the Lord faithfully. He’s the botanical highlander most likely to be hosting your fave zoom function and least likely to do so with pants on...Heavy on the single so do send nodes.
