Desert flowers are plants that bloom in arid environments, often characterized by extreme temperatures and limited water availability. These flowers have adapted to survive in harsh conditions, using strategies like deep root systems and water-storing tissues. Common examples include California poppy and desert marigold, which can often be seen after rare rainfalls. The blooming of desert flowers typically occurs in spring, following seasonal rains. Their vibrant colors and unique shapes attract pollinators such as bees and butterflies. These flowers play a crucial role in the desert ecosystem, providing food and habitat for various wildlife species.
