Super bloom:
While it isn’t a formal scientific term, a super bloom is “a wonderful natural phenomenon where many annual wildflowers all bloom simultaneously,” said Naomi Fraga, director of conservation programs at the California Botanic Garden in Claremont.
“You have a great diversity, an abundance of many different wildflower species, all flowering, creating bright patches of color on the landscape where they become the dominant feature,” Fraga said.
