Imani is the founder of the Golden Gardens Botanical Studio, creator of the ‘Holy Trinity’ Plant Care Collection, plant education specialist, plant designer, creative set designer, and writer/author based in Washington, DC.

For over 10 years, Imani has explored the relationship between plants, people, art, and the spaces we inhabit. Through years of hands-on experience, designing spaces and installations, developing plant-care methods, and studying what plants need to truly thrive, that passion has evolved into a multidisciplinary practice rooted in care, education, design, and creative expression.

Everyone has a green thumb. Sometimes, we just need the right teacher.

That experience is at the heart of Golden Gardens. From the carefully refined recipes behind the Holy Trinity Plant Care Collection to plant education and creative design, every offering is shaped by years of observation, experimentation, and an artist’s eye. With a background in creative set design, interior design, fashion, sewing, writing, and visual storytelling, Imani approaches plants as more than décor—they are living elements that can shape spaces, tell stories, and inspire connection.

Rooted in artistry.
Refined through experience.
Grown through care.
