Ice Age Flower Blossoms Again After 30,000 years

Ice Age Flower Blossoms Again After 30,000 years.
Plant resurrected from fruit collected by squirrels 30,000 years ago.  It was an ice age squirrel's treasure chamber, a burrow containing fruit and seeds that had been stuck in the Siberian permafrost for over 30,000 years.  A team of Russian tests managed to resurrect an entire plant from the fruit tissues.
