Not a question but due the recent rains in California the deserts there have gone into superbloom and the photos being posted of that are spectacular. Just type in "California desert super bloom " into your search engine to see the beauty of these desert wildflowers.

A superbloom is dependent upon the weather pattern and has something to do with El Niño. It is a rare event and I just saw some video of superbloom occurring in Death Valley National Park. To think that such a hot and seemingly barren place is in reality a super fertile area of wildflowers patiently waiting years to do their thing. It's magical!

Wow, that's a real eye opener! Amazing. I thought it was only cacti & other succulents that did that.
