Indian indenture in the Caribbean transformed the local topography as labourers brought dried fruits, seeds, and cuttings during the transoceanic voyage. Over one hundred years after this mass migration, these plants have become central to religious ceremonies and cultural festivities, drum-making and art, landscaping, agriculture, home gardening, cooking, and decoration. They now appear familiar and native to the wider Caribbean population. Some of the flora provide flowers, fruits, and leaves that have become synonymous with the region and reflect transported labourers’ deeply embedded footprint and gendered histories. Drawing on these influences, this article describes a collectively created archival project, Indian Inheritances Across and Beyond Caribbean Geographies, produced in memory of the Caribbean historian Professor Emeritus Brinsley Samaroo, whose essay, cited further in this article, and passing in 2023 inspired this project. As shown in this article, the project contributes to contemporary Caribbean visual archives through curation of photographs and text which memorialise the botanical legacy of Indian indenture and the meanings it has for those living in and descended from the region. Building upon these community-sourced submissions, the article intervenes in writing on the Creole garden through its analysis of contemporary gardenscapes in terms of post-indenture phytoarchives and floral mnemonics. In this framing, plants are living archives co-creating multispecies and multiethnic experiences of indenture and its afterlife, and they act as devices which memorialise and metaphorise indenture inheritances, evoking a multisensory connection to the past in the present.
