Here at L.A. Times Plants we love to highlight local community members who have a passion for plants. For our PLANT PPL series, we’re always on the lookout for people of color to spotlight. What better way to find new subjects than asking young L.A. photographers to capture their communities through their lenses? They chose to capture their moms, tíos, neighbors and local plant shop owners. “It built a stronger connection, not only between my tío and I but also my respect for being a plant parent and for those with a green thumb.”Have suggestions on whom we should profile next on PLANT PPL?
