Ancient Seed Grows Into 10-Foot Mystery Tree

Scientists just pulled off a real-life resurrection: they planted a 1,000-year-old seed found in an Israeli cave, and it actually sprouted! Now, 14 years later, it’s a 10-foot tree—turns out, it’s a close cousin to the legendary biblical 'Balm of Gilead' tree, famous for its healing powers. The wild part? This species is extinct in the wild and packed with rare medicinal compounds. Nature’s time capsule, unlocked! #Science #ScienceMagic #AncientPlants

they were promised that tree 3000yrs ago 😆 if they made a 1000yr old seed viable they need to do it again with other examples & show their work & its provenance. and If a species of plant went extinct many hundreds of years ago how would they have any indepth, genetic,characteristics&physical profile on it. they made the story up to justify there existence & claim to the land
