Synopsis

A super bloom is a natural phenomenon in which climate and conditions align to allow plants to flower in such abundance that they transformthe landscape, bathing it in color. When a super bloom arises, it is a miraculous sight.

Super Bloom is a love letter to flowers. It is a manifesto for maximum plants, maximum flowers, maximum beauty. It is perfect for the current time and trends. It also shows how to create your own super bloom.

Leading plant specialist Jac Semmler revives the appeal of treasured, old-world, beautiful flowers for the modern garden. This is a comprehensive gardening how-to for beginners and experts alike, including care and growing notes; natural parameters (such as location, climate, and aspect); where to source your plants, with suppliers all over the world; plant biology; soil ecology; tips on harvesting, conditioning, and arranging cut flowers; and more. Innovative, immersive photographs by Sarah Pannell illustrate gardening techniques as well as offering a breathtaking bee's-eye view of the garden. Look out for the incredible array of Planting Partners for each plant; whether you want to plant a garden that flowers in succession, group your plants by height or color, or find flowers with similar growing conditions.

Natural beauty nourishes something deep within us. Whether it's seeing a meadow of grasses or wildflowers, marveling at the smell ofa particular rose, or watching tulip heads wilt and drop, these are the moments that make us human, that connect us to the world, and remind us that beauty is everywhere. Super Bloom is a modern gardening classic.
