Superbloom (noun, SOO-per-bloom)
Superblooms are massive blooms of desert wildflowers. There isn’t an exact number of flowers required to make something a superbloom. But the word usually describes an above-average number of blossoms. These flowers create colorful carpets that blanket usually barren desert landscapes. They can even be seen from space!
Deserts are dry ecosystems that get less than 25 centimeters (10 inches) of precipitation a year. As a result, these environments often have very little plant life.
