What's in bloom right now

What is blooming now, state by state — every bloom we track with its window open this week. Spring runs south to north and low to high, so this list climbs the map as the weeks go by.

The week of September 24, 2026.

A quiet week in the fields

Nothing we track has its window open in late September. The desert wakes first every year, and whether it wakes big comes down to the winter rain — which starts falling months before the first flower opens.

Nothing opens inside the next six weeks. These are the blooms the calendar reaches first when the season turns.

How to read this page

A bloom lands here once this week falls inside its usual window, and the chip says whether it is building, at its best, or on the way out. Based on reports from iNaturalist naturalists. Timing shifts with the year's weather, so treat the window as the rhythm and the region page as the detail.

We name public reserves, parks, and roads only — never exact pins, never private land.

Updated September 29, 2026, and again every week through the season.
