Explanation

If your garden is blooming abundantly, it means it's overflowing with plenty of beautiful flowers, plants, and trees. Coming from the Latin word abundare, meaning "to overflow," abundantly captures the idea of plenty and excess. To understand this word, picture an apple tree with a few apples hanging from the branches. Now, to picture it abundantly loaded with fruit, imagine that the tree has so many apples that the branches bend under the weight. The word is also used when answering a question like, "Did I make myself clear?" "Abundantly so!"
