Death Valley 100 Year Bloom

[ Sizes: Orig | Med | Small | Thumb ]

In Spring of 2005 record rainfall and ideal temperatures produced an enormous display of wildflowers in the Death Valley- one of the hottest and driest landscapes in the Western hemisphere.
These seeds of Desert Sunflowers lay dormant for decades before blooming.

Awesome Sight!

Voted 10/10

Death Valley is an amazing place, but to see it so out of character .. that must have been an awesome sight to witness. Thanks for sharing this great image! --mark d.
