Death Valley National Park experienced its first major superbloom in a decade this year, driven by record winter rainfall (1.7 - 2.5+ inches) that transformed the desert landscape with vibrant carpets of yellow, pink, and purple flowers

The park normally sees about 2 inches (5 cm) of rain in a year. But it had more than a year’s worth of rain (2.5 inches, or 6 cm) between November 2025 and January 2026. 
The extra rain woke up dormant seeds. It’s given us the first superbloom in Death Valley since 2016
