W.J. Beal's pioneering seed viability study, initiated in 1879, stands as one of the longest-running experiments in botanical history. Over 130 years, Beal observed the germination rates of seeds buried in Michigan, providing invaluable insights into seed longevity and ecological resilience. This study has implications for conservation, agriculture, and understanding plant adaptation to changing environments. Join us as we explore the findings and their relevance today, offering a window into nature's remarkable capacity for survival.
