A #botanist searches for the #seeds of the rare #DeathValleySage
April 2, 2026
"For more than 15 years, botanist Naomi Fraga of the #CaliforniaBotanicGarden has been trying to collect seeds from the rare Death Valley sage, for safekeeping in a vault of native California seeds. Each time, she's come home empty handed. But this year, with the desert in the midst of a big bloom, she's trying again.
" 'It's a little bit of a gamble,' she says. 'But, you know, the plant's having a really good year. I feel hopeful.' "

In chapter 99,999 of Idiots in National Parks: May I present these imbeciles: Decided the AWD on the rental Porsche SUV was okay of handle 4 wheeling in a protected area of Death Valley. Got 200 feet. (The off the books pickup they hired to pull them out also got stuck AFTER the Rangers told them they needed to supervise the removal, yet another genius move) And shockingly a BMW also got stuck as well in a different area of the park attempting the same. Should get a lifetime ban #idiots #darwinaward #stupidisasstupiddoes #stupid #deathvalley https://www.yahoo.com/news/3-off-road-drivers-cited-051712978.html @ai6yr
