Bing introduced Love In Bloom in 1934's "She Loves Me Not", but Jack Benny claimed the song, made it his own, and destroyed it. 
Here is a cover version by Hal Kemp & His Orchestra, from July 10, 1934 with a vocal by Skinnay Ennis...

Re: Hal Kemp - Love In Bloom
'Love in Bloom' is a beaut song but the Kemp/Ennis version doesn't do it justice compared with Bing's version which was sung with feeling. I don't believe i've heard other recordings by Ennis and i know nothing of his career.
