Hunting for Rare Wildflowers in California's Wet Winter.

Botanist Naomi Fraga is on a mission to find rare wildflowers in California that have been lying dormant for years. This spring's wet weather has provided an opportunity to document the existence of rare plant species so that they might be saved from the brink of extinction. Fraga and other rare-plant biologists are in a race to find wildflowers before they disappear again. The botanists' ultimate goal is to secure endangered or rare species designations for the most threatened plants.
