Not quite like this year. I’ve seen the blooms every spring. Most are fairly muted in their scope.
This year, due to the constant rains over the last 3 months, the blooms are significant and spectacular.
We had next to no flowers out back of where I work last year. This year, it’s covered from end to end with flowers, white and yellow.
I watch an off-road youtuber in Utah that has been there his entire life. The Joshua Trees had big white blooms on them - first time he has ever seen them bloom in 30+ years (so much rain this year).
