Siberia

A plant that was frozen in Siberian permafrost for about 30,000 years has been revived by a team of Russian scientists -- and borne fruit, to boot.

Using tissue from immature fruits buried in fossil squirrel burrows some 90 feet below the surface, researchers from the Russian Academy of Sciences in Pushchino managed to coax the frozen remains of a Silene stenophylla specimen into full flower, producing delicate white blooms and then fruit.
