WILDFLOWER BLOOM SCHEDULE BY HABITAT
Blooming times overlap during the seasons and are influenced by many factors: immediate and
past precipitation, elevation and temperature of current seasons compared to average. Many plants
begin flowering at low elevations and bloom higher as summer season progresses. Some habitat
divisions used here have micro sites in them, such as montane with moist, open, or dry areas which
complicate plant species occurrence.
