(Thanks to NoCamels) As part of a class science project, students at Ha’kfar Hayarok High School in Central Israel gathered a few dozen seeds of the rare plant Rumex Rothschildianus, sprouted them in their lab and produced 100,000 new seeds. The seeds were given to the Israel Nature and National Parks Service, which is now planning to plant them in its parks.
