flowering season

When plants bloom

Flowering season is the time of year when a particular plant species blooms, or more broadly, the period when flowers are abundant in a region.

Gardeners plan around flowering seasons; botanists track them as indicators of climate patterns.

The cherry trees' flowering season draws thousands of visitors to Washington each spring.
