"It's a Big Deal to be featured in a weekend marathon on Create TV. This demonstrates how popular Life in Bloom is with viewers – they are responding to flowers, and requesting the chance to enjoy the show more often – instead of say, cooking or travel shows," J explained. "When you multiply these 15 extra weekend timeslots for March 20-22, by all of the Create TV channels in each market, it means the show is broadcast an extra 6,770 times that weekend, alone. They will also air the episodes during Prime Time March 23 - 26, which is another 3,012 airings - such a great showcase for Flowers and Life in Bloom!"
"When you add up all of the broadcast times - including the 5 regular Create TV timeslots - for the week of March 20-26, 2026, there are 10,970 opportunities to enjoy Flowers with Life in Bloom episodes, and the show is reaching 116.8 MILLION households, according to TRAC Media," concludes J, "it's truly, truly exciting! This is the first time we have had a marathon in Spring, and I think the viewer reaction will be phenomenal - everybody's waiting for Winter's end, and that means they are primed and ready for FLOWERS!"
Catch the marathon by choosing from three different 5 hour blocks, or watch it multiple times. Enjoy five hours of flowers on Friday starting at 9 pm, Saturday starting at 10 am, or Sunday starting at 12 noon, all times are eastern standard.
