Episode 475: Blooming

It appears spontaneous. One day your environment is slowly turning green and it is slow enough that you don’t see it happening but fast enough to measure the change, then suddenly, sometimes in the span of an hour the blossoms appear. The scent of the air changes and the profound change happens. Blooming is a natural phenomenon.
