Through Blossom Effect, she launched the Blossom Effect Business Fund (Micro Grant Program) and the LGBTQ+ &amp; BIPOC Plant Directory, initiatives supporting and spotlighting underrepresented plant entrepreneurs. Her work centers on cultural connection, growth, and community care, nurturing people as intentionally as she nurtures plants.<\/p>\n<p>Since starting Blossom Effect and focusing on her social media in 2023, Paige has garnered 3+ million followers across TikTok and Instagram. Her work has been featured in publications that include Ebony, Rolling Out, and House Beautiful, and teamed up with Urban Outfitters and Pinterest to curate a safe space with plants. Through her talent agency, Kensington Grey, she has collaborated with brands such as Dr. Bronner&#8217;s, Home Depot, and Subaru.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #df4264;\"><a style=\"font-size: revert; font-family: -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, 'Segoe UI', Roboto, Oxygen-Sans, Ubuntu, Cantarell, 'Helvetica Neue', sans-serif; color: #df4264;\" href=\"https:\/\/host.nxt.blackbaud.com\/registration-form\/?formId=720e5964-e471-498d-8224-d8695e7bfb7b&amp;envId=p-JnbQKmfglEe_obdIa3X7mQ&amp;zone=usa\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">REGISTER NOW<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>with Paige Tailyn Johnson, plant educator, Blossom EffectThursday, November 5, 2026 from 2-3 p.m. ETVirtual$15 AHS members\/$20 non-membersThis program is approved for 1 CEU with the Association of Professional Landscape [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":10,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"inline_featured_image":false,"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_price":"","_stock":"","_tribe_ticket_header":"","_tribe_default_ticket_provider":"","_tribe_ticket_capacity":"0","_ticket_start_date":"","_ticket_end_date":"","_tribe_ticket_show_description":"","_tribe_ticket_show_not_going":false,"_tribe_ticket_use_global_stock":"","_tribe_ticket_global_stock_level":"","_global_stock_mode":"","_global_stock_cap":"","_tribe_rsvp_for_event":"","_tribe_ticket_going_count":"","_tribe_ticket_not_going_count":"","_tribe_tickets_list":"[]","_tribe_ticket_has_attendee_info_fields":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-7981","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.4 -
