Rose Seeds and The Space Mutation Test.

In a bit of science-meets-gardening news, a batch of rose seeds has just returned to Earth (January 23, 2026) after a suborbital flight. Scientists sent the seeds into space to see how cosmic radiation and microgravity would mutate them. The hope is to create Space Roses that are more resilient to extreme weather or have completely unique colors and scents. Gardening enthusiasts in China are already following the mutation logs to see what these alien flowers will look like when they finally bloom.
