When you drop one of these tea balls into the hand-blown, clear glass teapot, an amazing transformation takes place as the ball opens and "blooms" into a beautiful flower with a pink rose at the center of a bright orange lily blossom. Let the flower steep for a few minutes and the fragrant tea is ready to sip. Each "Heart of Love" tea ball is made from the highest quality jasmine silver needle white tea with hints of rose and citrus.

Comments about Blooming Tea for Two Set:
I HAVE SENT TWO OF THESE TEA FLOWERS POTS AND MORE TEA FLOWERS AS GIFTS TO MY SISTER-IN-LAW AND ONE TO A BROTHER- IN-LAW. THEY WERE VERY SURPRISED AND JUST LOVED IT. THEY LIKED THE MELLOW AND SOOTHING TASTE. I VERY GLAD I CHOOSE "GARDNERS SUPPLY COMPANY" TEA AND TEA POT. I HAVE SEEN OTHER CATALOGS AND TV PROGRAMS THAT DIDN'T GET VERY GOOD REVIEWS. I WENT BY THESE REVIEWS WITH GREAT SATISFACTION. I GLAD I SENT THE EXTRA TEA FLOWERS SO THEY CAN ENJOY IT LONGER.
Comments about Blooming Tea for Two Set:
An unusual gift for tea lovers of all ages .... and one with aesthetic appeal. If the tea doesn't please them, the display certainly will. However, from what I've heard, the tea is delicious. I may have to buy one for myself.
Comments about Blooming Tea for Two Set:
I used this item as a recent Mother's Day gift and received rave reviews about it. I'm not sure how I will top this next year, but hope that the Gardener's Supply Company will have something equally creative to offer then.

Beautiful to watch
Comments about Blooming Tea for Two Set:
The Blooming Tea Set is really fun to use. Not only is it a fun way to make and serve tea, but it is also really pretty.
Comments about Blooming Tea for Two Set:
A charming gift item but lacking in taste and strength of the tea. The "flower" was the most disappointing aspect since it looked more like a nondescript bug of some unknown species
Comments about Blooming Tea for Two Set:
My niece sent me this for my birthday and I love it. I was having a stressful afternoon when it arrived. Instead of reaching for a glass of wine I watched the little heart open into a beautiful flower then enjoyed a lovely cup of tea. It relaxed me, I could feel my blood pressure dropping and the stress melting away.

This product was a gift. The recipient was delighted to receive it and commented that it was fascinating to watch the tea brew, it was beautiful and it was tasty too.
Comments about Blooming Tea for Two Set:
I sent this to my high school niece for Christmas. She said it might have been the "coolest" gift she's ever received. I bought one for myself and need to try it. My niece sent a photo of one of the teas blooming and I was astounded!
Comments about Blooming Tea for Two Set:
I purchased this for a gift.The recipient loved the simple elegance of the teapot and it is on display at her home.The tea not only unique but tastes good too.

gift for tea lover who tried on christmas day, and she gave it a thumbs up!
Comments about Blooming Tea for Two Set:
I purchased 3 for christmas gifts, the comments were great, each loved the transformation of the flowers, the taste of the tea, and how pretty it looked on the counter or coffee table. I'll be purchasing 3 more one for me, my daughter and my grand-daughter.
Comments about Blooming Tea for Two Set:
I sent this to my sister when she moved to Florida.
I told her that when she meets a new friend invite
her over for a cup to tea. What a unique gift and
it is sure to get conversation going.
Comments about Blooming Tea for Two Set:
I enjoyed two of the blooms on separate afternoons and had alot of fun trying them. The concept is unique and the blooms actually unfold exactly how the pictures indicate. I found the tea to be a little bit weaker than my usual Earl Grey or English Breakfast, but they were tasty and it was nice trying something different. I filled the teapot with cold water afterwards to preserve the blooms for a few days because they're so pretty.
Comments about Blooming Tea for Two Set:
Lovely gift for people who don't need a lot of "doo-dads" but appreciate attractive things. Both people to whom I sent this remarked that it was very relaxing to sit down and enjoy the pot of tea, and watch the flower open up.
Comments about Blooming Tea for Two Set:
Bought this for my daughter-in-law, and she loved it
Comments about Blooming Tea for Two Set:
I gave this gift to my Favorite Aunt who has every gardening tool in the world. She is the consummate gardener. She doesn't drink coffee and she loves her tea breaks. When she called me Christmas morning she was absolutely in love with the gift. I haven't heard back on the taste so I can't answer any of the questions about that which is why I only gave it 4 stars.
It was a real WOW gift for the person who has everything!
Comments about Blooming Tea for Two Set:
The most satisfying result - give teapot/bloom as a gift and listen to the raves of recipient and all guests present.
The tea is great and the anticipation of blooms is exciting.
Comments about Blooming Tea for Two Set:
I love this tea and the tea pot. My husband likes to make a pot in the morning. He drinks a cup with breakfast, then saves the rest and makes a little more for lunch. The tea is great hot or cold. It is the first herbal tea I've tasted that was full of flavor. The aroma is out of this world. My one concern is that the tea pot seems fragile. I am planning on buying this again for a gift. If you love herbal tea, you can't go wrong with this product.
Comments about Blooming Tea for Two Set:
Given as a gift for a tea lover. She found the tea flowers not only were fascinating to see open up, but that the tea was quite good tasting.
Comments about Blooming Tea for Two Set:
I received the tea posie as a gift. I love the tea and the pretty posies. It is a great conversation piece and fun to watch the ball bloom.
Comments about Blooming Tea for Two Set:
This teapot can be used for brewing the flower tea for one person as well as a group of people.
Comments about Blooming Tea for Two Set:
Excellent product that I have both purchased for myself and given as a gift. The only drawback is that the teapot is glass, but appears to hold up well to small bumps as well as boiling water.
Comments about Blooming Tea for Two Set:
I gave several of these as gifts and everyone loved them. Tea tasted good and when the flower unfolds it was amazing. Pretty to look at and as well as taste. Works well for the tea drinker on your list as well as the flower lover.
Hope you have them again next year or something similar so I can give them again next year.
Comments about Blooming Tea for Two Set:
Delightful to watch and surprisingly delicious, enjoyed by 3 generations during a family gathering
Comments about Blooming Tea for Two Set:
My Mom really enjoyed this. It is very unique and fun to watch the tea blossom.
Comments about Blooming Tea for Two Set:
it is a great way to share a cup of tea with a friend. Something to watch unfold during the conversation.
Comments about Blooming Tea for Two Set:
I gave this as a gift. Once I got it in the mail and looked at it, I want one for myself.
Comments about Blooming Tea for Two Set:
A real hit as a Christmas gift! Everyone wanted one!
Comments about Blooming Tea for Two Set:
I bought this as a gift. Thought it was bigger than it was. I think they will like it. It is unique.
Comments about Blooming Tea for Two Set:
This makes a wonderful gift for any woman on your list. Tea drinker or not. The show of the teas are worth every penny even if they don't drink the tea
Comments about Blooming Tea for Two Set:
The glass teapot allows one to view the lovely tea blooms. The set includes many different arrangements. The replacement tea blooms include a reduced number of bloom types. The tea is relatively expensive but would work nicely for a special event in which the tea becomes a conversation piece. I have found replacement blooms at an international food market, so it is possible to continue to enjoy the glass teapot when the original supply runs out.
Comments about Blooming Tea for Two Set:
I gave the Teaposie to my daughter as a Christmas present. It couldn't be cuter. She loved it and the tea was delicious.
Comments about Blooming Tea for Two Set:
bought as a gift,great show,but now no longer available,refill tea packs is miss leading only certain flowers available
Comments about Blooming Tea for Two Set:
Though the teapot was smaller than what I was expecting, it makes two generous-sized mugs of tea, and it's a very pretty design. It makes having tea feel like an "event"! It's pretty neat watching the tea ball "bloom" in the water. I just wish some of the varieties offered included black tea as the base in addition to the silver needle tea. (Also, I tried to take out the strainer when washing the teapot, but felt it might break the spout doing so; so I just left it in.) Even just for regular tea bags or a separate metal tea ball filled with whatever tea you prefer, it's a very pretty way to serve tea. (Pour carefully so it doesn't spill.)
Comments about Blooming Tea for Two Set:
I saw this in the catalog and tried to decide to whom it should be gifted, then in a really splurgy "I'm worth it" moment decided to give it to myself. I have enjoyed sharing it with grandchildren and friends, but do not hesitate to brew one up for myself, sit by the fire and read a good book. I hope the tea balls will continue to be available.
Comments about Blooming Tea for Two Set:
the blooming tea is beautiful and tasty. The tea pot was smaller and dantier than I envisioned but enough for two cups. I would purchase it as a gift as well.
Comments about Blooming Tea for Two Set:
It made a beautiful gift.
Comments about Blooming Tea for Two Set:
Great gift for lovers of mild teas!
Comments about Blooming Tea for Two Set:
This was a gift to a close friend. She loved every aspect of it including the non-drip spout on the teapot, the visual impact of the tea "blooming" as it hydrated, and the flavor and aroma of the tea itself. This is a unique gift for someone who enjoys tea.
Comments about Blooming Tea for Two Set:
I bought this as a gift and have rarely seen anyone so excited about a gift. She said the first tea was a little weak but she didn't care as it was so pretty. The others had a bit more flavor. She'll definitely be buying refills.
Comments about Blooming Tea for Two Set:
The blooming tea pot has to be the best gift I've ever given. Not only was it unique but it brought so much joy in watching the flower bloom before your eyes. The tea was very tasty. It changed a sad time to an experience of happiness.
Comments about Blooming Tea for Two Set:
Bought for Christmas gift because it was something a little different. It was nice but way to small, only good for one or two people not four or five unless you got really small tea cups.
Comments about Blooming Tea for Two Set:
I gave this Blooming Teapot as a gift & am sure glad I did. The receiver loved it & we shared a pot last night in special china tea cups. The flavor of the tea was excellent & the way it blooms is really cool.
Comments about Blooming Tea for Two Set:
I gave several of these as gifts. I have received only posiitve comments. One friend especially enjoyed watching "let it snow" with her grandson.
This is a great hostess gift.
Comments about Blooming Tea for Two Set:
A good way to slow down and take time out for yourself. The artistry of the tea balls are gorgeous. Would be nice if the tea balls were something that you could pick up locally if you ran out but works well with loose tea too.
Comments about Blooming Tea for Two Set:
A visually stimulating way to present a healthy, calming beverage to friends and family.
Comments about Blooming Tea for Two Set:
[...] weak tea flavor even after 10 minutes of steeping
Comments about Blooming Tea for Two Set:

Comments about Blooming Tea for Two Set:
I found this item disappointing compared to the way it appeared in the catalog. I thought it would be much bigger, more like a standard teapot size. It is very pretty, but too small.

This was a gift for an avid tea drinker and turned into a gift of embarrassment for me. Anxious to try it, she immediately did, and was gracious but could tell was disappointed.

I gave it as a gift. The receiver raves about it.
Comments about Blooming Tea for Two Set:
We gave this item as a gift and the recipient couldn't wait to try it. The blooms make enough for many to have a taste and during the bloom time we had a lively conversation. The time it took to bloom was significantly longer than stated, but when you're in good company you don't really notice.
Comments about Blooming Tea for Two Set:
We use this product when friends get together for morning coffee on Sat. We've added tea to our routine. It is fun to watch the flowers bloom and the teapot is very attractive,
Comments about Blooming Tea for Two Set:
Gift recipient was amazed and greatly pleased; I am impressed big-time!
Comments about Blooming Tea for Two Set:
I bought this as a gift for my niece for Christmas. She was so excited because she had seen a tea pot for loose leaf tea a few days before & really wanted one. Boy was she in for a treat when It started to blossom! She couldn't believe it. Of course I was thrilled. I also bought her the refills. I'm sure they will be just as good.
Comments about Blooming Tea for Two Set:
Sent as a gift. They went on and on about how wonderful and fun it is to watch "bloom" and drink. These aren't kids either! LOL
Comments about Blooming Tea for Two Set:
What a delight to see my father-in-law enjoy this gift. The brewed tea as enjoyable and the tea pod bloomed in to a huge flower. Very lovely.
Comments about Blooming Tea for Two Set:
I used as a Christmas gift to the tea lovers on my list. Wanted a couple more and the product was sold out! Hopefully it will come back.
Comments about Blooming Tea for Two Set:
I shopped around and found this one to be a very good choice with all the tea included, the strainer in the spout, and a large comfortable handle, made this a great bargain and a wonderful gift.
Comments about Blooming Tea for Two Set:
I bought this as a gift, so I cannot comment on the quality of the tea. But, it is a beautiful teapot with the strainer included in the spout (a plus in my book). It was packaged well and arrived intact. This is a perfect gift for a tea lover! The flowering teas are just beautiful to watch as they steep.
Comments about Blooming Tea for Two Set:

sunday morning with the paper before anyone is up
Comments about Blooming Tea for Two Set:
Sent this as a Xmas gift to a tea-lover, who LOVES it. Says he's already floating away due to all the extra tea he's drinking. Only con he mentioned was that the attached tea-strainer is too difficult to use/clean, so he has removed it & is using his own. Based on his feedback to me, I wouldn't hesitate to purchase this item again - either as a gift or for myself.
Comments about Blooming Tea for Two Set:
The photos are decieving-I expected a larger teapot
Comments about Blooming Tea for Two Set:
I bought this as a gift for a tea drinker. The interesting tea flavors and the added bonus of the tea "bloom" made this a great gift for her!
Comments about Blooming Tea for Two Set:
The blossoming tea makes for a beautiful gift.
My daughter loved it!
Comments about Blooming Tea for Two Set:
I couldn't wait for this to arrive and bought one for my daughter also. When I received it I was so disappointed. The teapot in the picture looked like a regular 10 cup or so teapot. What I got was a teapot that might hold 1 and a half cups if I am lucky. What a rip off!!! I will not buy anything I cannot see in person again!!!
Comments about Blooming Tea for Two Set:
I bought this as a gift for a friend who has dialysis weekly, which is not a pleasant experience, and she uses tea to relax after that. She said she's "never seen anything so beautiful!" I've seen "growing rocks" for children that you sprinkle into water and watch, and thought growing tea instead would be great. I was right.
Comments about Blooming Tea for Two Set:
I gave one of these to a friend at a birthday celebration. Everyone loved it. I bought more for Christmas presents (including our own family!). They are pretty and a conversation piece even for those who do not drink tea. I discovered if you don't drink the tea when the tea gets too cloudy to see the flowers, you can drain it slowly, fill through the spout with clear water and have the display for a couple weeks! Get the extra packs too!
Comments about Blooming Tea for Two Set:
This clear glass teapot is perfect for brewing any tea, whether loose or in tea bags. It allows you to observe the brewing process and control the strength of the beverage. The accompanying blooming teas are delicious and fun to watch. I love mine so much I got one for my sister-in-law for Christmas.
Comments about Blooming Tea for Two Set:
I LOVE Gardener's Supply!!!! Ever since we found the catalog, we always find stuff we need and great gifts for friends and family. The products are great and the prices fair [...]
Comments about Blooming Tea for Two Set:
Very nice looking tea set, but it is very delicate. The glass is just too thin, and the overall size it on the small side. I guess by the picture you can't really get an idea of what the actual size will be. This product is best used in a home without kids.

Comments about Blooming Tea for Two Set:
This was selected as a Xmas gift for my mother and daughter-in-law. Both are hard to find things that they don't have or can use and this item is unique and functional because it can be used as a great center piece for a table and fragrant the air at the same time. Plus they both enjoy a good cup of tea. A triple winner in my book.

I love this. Am an avid tea drinker and this was a gift from my Mother In Law for my birthday. Am so glad I am able to enjoy the soothing and refreshing tea but am totally intrigued how this tiny ball is so full of flavor and opens!

Comments about Blooming Tea for Two Set:
Besides the benefit of the great tasting teas, this product scores tops in my "presentation" section! I used three pots for a "High Tea Tour" open house event at the assisted living facility where I work, and they were the most memorable part of the event! Also enjoyed them as table centerpieces for days after. Love the idea...

Comments about Blooming Tea for Two Set:
I like the tea and the glass teapot so much that I've been giving them for gifts for all sorts of occasions. I use mine all the time. You can find additional varieties of tea on the manufacturer's website, but I like the jasmine tea best.
