blooming houseplant food
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This product really works well I highly recommend it
by
    Great product for my few indoor plants.
    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Used other Scott products for my African Violets, but found the pump bottle ideal for my small indoor garden.

      Guess it works, time will tell the story
      [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It's too soon for me to give an accurate rating of this product.

        Convenient!
        [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Easy and simple to use! Great for house plants without having to mix and measure.

          Anther great product from Scotts
          [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Seems to be working fine. I must report that I did buy the outdoor cleaner that was supposed to take care of mildew on cushions, etc. and it did nothing for removing the mildew. Only product of Scotts that has not performed as I would expect.

            easy to use
            [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Not bad, it's easy to apply, hopefully the plants I used it on will continue to be healthy.

              Looks like buds coming
              [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] First applied Miracle-Gro Blooming Houseplant Food about 3 weeks ago and now I cam see there are buds coming on 5 of my 8 treated plants. The plants have been growing healthy for over a year but with very few flowers. It is exciting to see some buds coming on these plants. Miracle-Gro Blooming Houseplant Food is easy to use, just pump it onto the soil.

                helps grow
                [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I used this product & got pretty good results with my house plants good& easy to use I would use again
                by
                  Product sounds like it has great feature.
                  [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I think it's too soon to give a fair review since I only had the product for about a month and have not seen any real difference. I do have a question, can I apply it to my Orchids? Thank you.

                    All my violets are blooming!
                    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Like all other Miracle-Gro products, this one works great. My violets hadn't bloomed for several months, but since using this, they now have buds coming out and are getting ready to bloom.
                    by
                      FLOWERS FOREVER
                      [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love flowers as they bloom continuously! But they do need fertilizer - like we need food.
                      by
                        Excellent plant food
                        [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Scotts Blooming Houseplant food is the best out there. It is especially good on acid loving plants. The plants are sturdier and the blooms are fuller and brighter.

                          flowers
                          [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] product easy to use, some drip after using pump. flowers perked after 2nd time of use

                            Box open and bottle empty upon receipt
                            [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] When I received the box it was open and soaked and bottle empty

                                    Blooming Houseplant Food really works great
                                    Miracle-Gro plant foods are amazing! I love African violets but they frustrate me because they never rebloom for me after I purchase them and repot. I have been using Miracle-Gro Blooming Houseplant Food now for six months and my African Violets are just starting to produce beautiful healthy flowers for the first time. Eagerly awaiting more blooms. I'm so happy and delighted with this product. I will continue to use all Miracle-Gro plants foods and leaf shine.

                                      Agree with UnhappyvioletMomma
                                      I have been using Miracle-Gro products and Miracle-Gro African Violet fertilizer for years. If you notice, the later reviews are great for the older "Drops." I used to agree!! The new pump "Foam" and pump "Liquid" products have increased my fertilizer cost due to dilution of the product. I have over 30 African Violets, water once a week, and use over 1-1/2 gallons of water. I've been through two (2) of the new bottles (one foam and one liquid) in the last month and one-half. It is no longer economical to use this product. I will be buying “Shultz” brand African Violet Plant Food (7 DROPS per quart) from now on :(

                                        Lots of dilution in this product
                                        I used to buy the Concentrated Violet Fertilizer (which has been discontinued). This watery product is the replacement? The previous violet fertilizer was 7-7-7, this product is 1/7 of the strength! I needed to use 32 pumps per gallon of water. 2 gallons of water for my violets on a weekly basis (yes, I have lots of violets) and the bottle is empty. I'll be looking for a new brand of concentrated violet fertilizer that is close to 7-7-7.

                                          Violets florish but never bloom??
                                          I have 6 beautiful African Violet plants that have been watered with your product for an entire year without even i bloom! How can that be?/ Plants are lovely but no flowers. Plants are located in north window,no direct sun but lots of light.

                                            VIOLET-LUV
                                            [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I purchased a bottle of Miracle-Gro® Blooming Houseplant Food many, many years ago for my African Violets and Streptococcus plants. They did wonderful. The bloom were huge and the leaves were so large and healthy looking. I used this once a month. When we moved to Florida I gave my plants away because I didn't have enough sun coming into the mobile. I gave the bottle away to the secretary in our office because her Violet never blooms. We shall see what come up. Sweepstakes entry.

                                              The is the Best for my Violets
                                              I started with several violets from the clearance rack and I've only ever used this product. They are beautiful and in constant bloom. I will not use anything.. I use pots designed for violets and every time I water I put in about 7 to 10 drops.. I just received some rather expensive violets and you can bet your bottom dollar that I will only Miracle Grow for my new little ones..
