The Search for the Kankakee Mallow (2016x15)

Yayınlanma tarihi: Tem 27, 2016

Original Title: This flower only grows in the wild on a single tiny island... in Illinois. The Kankakee Mallow (Iliamna remota) is a special little flower. The only place in the world it's found in the wild is on a single small island in the middle of the Kankakee River in Illinois - but until last year, it hadn't been seen in over a decade, and was feared to be extinct. Thanks to volunteer efforts, we got to be some of the first to see it back in bloom!
