In 2017, The Arboretum at Flagstaff (TE Permit 226653-0) collected 4,475 seeds from 69 individual ragwort plants on Agassiz Peak. In coordination with the Service, they sent the seeds to the National Center for Genetic Resources Preservation in Fort Collins, Colorado for long-term conservation storage. This action will assist in the conservation of the species by preserving genetic material for future research and developing a seedbank for propagation, if needed.
