Bloom

One of the most glorious privileges of living in Arizona is reveling in the month of March. Gorgeous spring is in full effect, bringing sun-drenched days and a jewel-toned sky so blue it might easily be mistaken for some kind of highdefinition, digital magic. A walk through the scenic desert verifies that indeed, spring has sprung. From the pitter patter of desert creatures scurrying about, to the lush green carpet of grasses, germinating annual and revived perennials, the washes and dry hills begin to come alive with color.

Sonoran Desert wildflowers are truly a gift for our senses this time of the year. The pops of vivid color deliver a kind of softness to the harsh desert, and the various blooming species are always a seasonal sight not to be missed! This year, with the abundant rainfall we had from a series of Pacific weather systems in December and January, nature is expected to give us quite a show!

a colorful assortment of desert marigold and brittlebrush. Lost Dutchman State Park at the base of the dramatic Superstition Mountains boasts abundant color, with chuparosa and globemallows blooming. If you take a drive along US 60 towards Globe, you can make a stop at Boyce Thompson Arboretum – a lovely botanical garden that strives to delight visitors with a dramatic display of wildflowers. Plus, you’re also likely to see a mix of wildflowers carpeting the roadside along the way. Wildflower viewing can be tricky. While it would be convenient for Mother Nature to adhere to a schedule, the displays will change from year-to-year, even weekto-week. And, areas that are exploding with color can abruptly change due to climate shifts. To really make the best of your wildflower tours, plan to check in with a couple of resources. Arizona State Parks has created a RangerCam (head to AZStateParks.com) for up-to-theminute images of the wildflower displays in several locations. Desert Botanical Garden (click on dbg.org/wildflowers) offers a Wildflower Infosite in which they collaborate with parks and gardens all over the state to provide an ever-changing guide to where the best wildflower viewing is.
