About this product
Product Information
Bloom is the only modern guide to cultivating flowering houseplants that includes insider secrets to encourage these beautiful plants to bloom and thrive. In Bloom , The Houseplant Guru Lisa Eldred Steinkopf unleashes all the secrets on how to grow dozens of indoor plants that produce colorful, intricate, and sometimes fragrant blooms. If you've ever struggled to get an orchid or African violet to rebloom, or if you've hesitated to add plants like hoya, anthurium, Madagascar jasmine, or clivia to your windowsill for fear you may never see their gorgeous flowers, Lisa reveals the insider strategies you need to encourage these plants to strut their stuff. In her signature warm and beginner-friendly tone, she introduces simple techniques you can use to encourage bloom alongside all the ins and outs of caring for these beautiful plants. Lush, full-color photography accompanies each in-depth plant profile. Upping your houseplant game doesn't have to involve spending hundreds or even thousands of dollars on the next trendy leafy-green foliage plant. If you want to expand both your growing skills and the number of specimens in your houseplant family, dive into the world of flowering houseplants instead. New cultivars of old favorites are taking the houseplant world by storm, and other, more unusual, species are now making their way into the limelight, thanks to the interest of millions of new houseplant parents around the world. Inside the pages of Bloom , you'll meet: - The best flowering houseplants to cascade from window ledges, hanging pots, and plant shelves - A collection of small blooming houseplants perfect for tabletops, desks, and windowsills - Houseplants with colorful blooms for the living room, dining room, and bedroom Fill your home with foliage and flowers, and enjoy all the color and calm they'll add to your living space.

Reviews
"New and experienced growers alike will relish these strategies for adding a little flower power."-- Publishers Weekly, "BLOOM is the best guide to houseplanting ever published. Superb!" -- Elvin McDonald, the 'dean of American garden editors' and author of more than 50 gardening books, "I confess! I am far more at home in my outside garden than I am tending plants indoors. From orchids and African violets to amaryllis and kalanchoe, I need help. And now I have it. I have always been a fan of Lisa because she explains what to do in an easy-to-understand style. In this book, she also explains why I should be doing it. The in-depth discussions of photoperiod and types of lights are enlightening, and the plant-by-plant guides are invaluable. I recommend this book for anyone wishing to bring the outdoors in." -- Allan Armitage, award-winning educator, horticulturist, and author of Armitage's Garden Perennials
