Why do desert plants germinate very quickly?
Plant seeds need water to germinate, grow into a mature plant and then reproduce. Water in the desert is a rare commodity so when sufficient rain does fall, the seeds quickly sprout and grow, bloom and form more seeds. It's a matter of a survival adaptation.
Why does the desert burst into bloom at certain times?
If it rains (or when it rains) in an arid desert, seeds that have lain dormant in the ground (sometimes for years) will burst into life. Such plants will quickly grow, flower, and produce seeds before succumbing and dying on the return of arid conditions. The cycle is repeated when the rain once more returns - which could be a very long time in the future.
