spring bloom
Vernal floral display
Spring bloom refers to the seasonal burst of plant growth and flowering that occurs as temperatures warm, or to the rapid multiplication of phytoplankton in oceans and lakes during spring.
The terrestrial sense describes gardens and landscapes coming alive with color: The cherry trees are in full spring bloom.
The aquatic sense describes algae populations exploding when sunlight and nutrients align: Satellite images captured the spring bloom spreading across the North Atlantic.
