One of the most visible elements of life in the desert is the occasional but dramatic blooming cycles of desert wildflowers. Typically appearing in the spring after the winter rains have subsided, wildflowers blanket the desert sands in a rich multi-colored palette. Stretching from the Rocky Mountains to the Sierra-Nevada range, the vast North American desert offers countless opportunities to survey these ethereal blooms. Of particular interest are the Sonoran Desert, Joshua Tree National Park and Death Valley.
