What do Scrat , The Ice Age Squirrel and an Old Flower Have in Common? Bonus questions: Quiz 2/24

Remember the squirrel Scrat from Ice Age?  He was always chasing that acorn!  Did he finally bury it?  About 30,000 years ago another squirrel did just that,  he or she buried a bunch of nuts and fruit for the winter.  A  team of Russian scientist found the squirrels burrow filled with nuts and fruit and by using the fruit tissues they were able to grow the plant pictured below.  WOW a 30,000 year old plant lives again!!
QUESTION:  What plant would you want to save for 30,000 years or what plant would you like to see from 30,000 years ago?  Leave me a comment. Include your color group and initials.
