California is about to be treated to a spectacle

California is about to be treated to a spectacle: Hillsides awash in poppy superblooms, thanks to heavy rain during the winter that is coaxing the flowers to blossom.⁠⁠Deserts and hills in parts of the state are expected to be covered in bursts of orange and yellow poppies this spring. California officials said there was enough rain over the winter to bring the superblooms back for the first time since 2019.⁠⁠Superblooms, when flowers blossom en masse, usually happen when a rainy winter follows a drought. The drought kills plants that would have competed with poppies, a hardy species, for nutrients. Poppies are the most well-known flowers in the superbloom, but others, such as whispering bells and milkmaids, are also expected to blossom.⁠⁠Golden poppies are the state flower of California. They are typically bright orange and grow to the size of a tennis ball.⁠⁠For many Californians, the superblooms are a rare positive following a wet winter. Both locals and tourists flock to the superblooms to see a rare phenomenon that only happens every few years, according to the U.S. Geological Survey. The poppies are expected to bloom so bright in April and May that they can be seen from space.⁠⁠Read more at the link in our bio.⁠⁠Photos: for Ringo Chiu/Zuma Press
