Richard Vaughan+FollowRare South African flower returns after 70 yearsA flower thought lost for decades has made a stunning comeback in South Africa’s Blyde River Canyon. Thanks to years of hard work removing invasive trees and restoring the land, local scientists have rediscovered a unique species—now named Thorncroftia coddii—growing wild again after 70 years. This isn’t just a win for botanists; it’s a powerful reminder of how restoring natural habitats can bring back life we thought was gone forever.
