Is “Bloom where you are planted” in the Bible?
No. “Bloom where you are planted” is not in the Bible. The nearest passage is Jeremiah’s letter to the exiles: build houses, plant gardens, and look after the peace of the city where you are (Jeremiah 29:5-7). Paul says each one should live the life the Lord has assigned (1 Corinthians 7:17).

The answer
Where it comes from, and what the Bible says.
Not a Bible verse
No. It is not in the Bible.
The nearest passage is Jeremiah’s letter to the exiles: build houses, plant gardens, and look after the peace of the city where you are (Jeremiah 29:5-7). Paul says each one should live the life the Lord has assigned (1 Corinthians 7:17).
What the Bible says instead
Build houses and make your home in them; plant gardens and eat their fruit. Take wives and father sons and daughters. Get wives for your sons and give your daughters to husbands, so they can bear sons and daughters. Grow numerous there; do not dwindle. Look after the peace of the city I have exiled you to, and pray to Yahweh for it, because when it has peace, you will have peace.
