“Scientists promptly cut the plants down for genetic sampling...”. /sarc

Sometimes the scientists are the problem like when biologists studying frogs didn’t disinfect their clothes and equipment and spread the amphibian
maiming/killing Chytridiomycosis fungus worldwide. Damned nerds.

Bristol County? Protected lands?

It’s Probably in the Freetown State Forest, which is reported to be haunted :-) (AKA The Devil’s Swamp!)

Just speculating, as the site is known for Bigfoot sightings, UFOs, Indian massacres, Unsolved Murders, Satanic cult Activity, and stuff like that.

So a resurrected extinct orchid isn’t too wierd for the area! :-)

((((One of my favorite areas for long Harley rides...in the DAYTIME, of course! LOL!)))

I got these things all over my back yard. I put them in salads with iceberg, romaine tomatoes and cucumbers with grilled zucchini and olive oil and sea salt with fresh ground black pepper. It’s delicious. some of my friends like parmesan ground on top, I go without.
