General conditions for normality of blow-up

Let $X$ be an integral, affine, normal complex surface. I am looking for conditions on zero-dimensional closed subschemes $Z$ in $X$ such that the reduced scheme associated to the blow-up of $X$ along $Z$ is once again normal. Any reference will be most welcome.
