Disaster-hit Chilean botanical garden sows seeds of fire resistance

After a wildfire devastated Chile's largest botanical garden, the century-old park rebuilds with trees it hopes are less likely to go up in flames. The wildfire of February 2024, considered the deadliest in Chile's recent history, killed 136 people and destroyed 90 percent of the 990-acre garden in the coastal city of Vina del Mar.
