Wildflower Update 2012

February 7, 2012

So far, the winter season of 2011/2012 has been very dry in Death Valley National Park. The lack of rainfall has prevented wildflower seeds from sprouting, which will likely result in an extremely limited wildflower bloom this spring.

If weather conditions persist, we expect to find only a few flowering shrubs and perennials to bloom in washes and canyons.
