“Life in Bloom” News Round Up - Behind the Bloom Podcasts Enter Year 2
The Behind the Bloom podcast recently marked its first anniversary with a special podcast!
“Well, it’s been an entire YEAR of Weekly Podcasts- with RJ and Me… and we’re ready to start our 2nd Year. We’ve gone behind the scenes on almost 3 Seasons of J Schwanke’s Life in Bloom Episodes. We’ve had special guests, and plenty of ‘stand-alone’ Podcasts (not about JSLB episodes - but about flowers, of course!)” notes J. In the Anniversary podcast RJ and J revisit how, it started. PLUS, they discuss the response to Life in Bloom, how it‘s created, how the non-profit foundation assists, and what listeners/viewers can do to help keep LIFE in BLOOM On the air for years to come!
We’re thankful for the support of American Floral Alliance and our friends at Chrysal as sponsors of Behind the Bloom podcast with J Schwanke and RJ Pole. Get the podcast at the links below - or wherever you find podcasts.

Life in Boom Season 9 Wraps Filming
Season 9 of Life in Bloom has completed filming - and now it’s on to the editing stage of production. An exciting time as we see how each episode comes together and is refined to perfection in the process. Much work is still to be done to prepare for the season’s April 2027 release on public television.

Since American Floral Alliance has renewed their commitment of support for J Schwanke’s Life in Bloom as a Principle Underwriter for Season 10, planning is beginning for location filming at California Flower Farms - we’re looking forward to telling more flower stories including AFA members.
