They found a plant thought to be exinct in the area, and got super excited when they found it. Seeds have been forwarded to a seed bank. The article is worth a read and is fairly short :)

    If I understand the article correctly, this is about plants extinct in the area of Vermont only.

      I believe so, but nice to see them slowly coming back. Perhaps they never went extinct, but were thought to be extinct because they were exceedingly rare.
