THE TERM SUPERBLOOM IS USED TO DESCRIBE YEARS WHEN EXCESS RAIN CAUSES CHAPARRAL AND DESERT LANSCAPES TO PRODUCE MORE FLOWERS THAN NORMAL, WITH CARPETS OF WILDFLOWERS SOMETIMES COVERING ENTIRE LANDSCAPES FOR A BRIEF PERIOD. THE SEEDS OF THE DESERT WILDFLOWERS ARE MADE TO LAST – THEY OFTEN HAVE THICK OR WAXY COATINGS AND ARE ABLE TO SURVIVE IN A DORMANT STATE FOR YEARS OR DECADES”.
AS EVERYONE WILL KNOW WHEN LOOKING UP THE PHENOMENON ON WIKIPEDIA. TO PETTERSEN & HEIN SUPERBLOOM MEANS BELIEVING THAT SOMEHTING BEATIFUL CAN GROW FROM DESPERATE TIMES. THE YEAR 2020 HAS HANDED US ALL A GREAT DEAL OF TROUBLES – WHY NOT TRY TO BELIEVE GREAT THINGS WILL BE GENERATED AND GROW OUT FROM THIS?
