Upon finding the plant, the researchers made careful observation of its key features, such as the sepals, petals and stamens, and drew scientific drawings. Back at the lab, they conducted molecular experiments on the samples, before confirming that it was the Euonymus aquifolium plant.

The findings have been published in PhytoKeys, an international botanic journal.
