X-22 botanical garden

The X-22 botanical garden is a location in the northwest of Big MT in 2281. It is directly north of the Signal Hills transmitter.
==Background==
A long-defunct research station, X-22 focused on researching plant life and its military applications. It was here that Beauveria Mordicana was created, and later transferred to Vault 22, which was eventually overrun by the fungal infestation, creating spore carriers.Old World Blues endings: "The Biological Research Station, obsessed with seeding everything in sight, requested a transfer to the X-22 Botanical Garden... so that it might, in its own words, 'sensually fertilize the garden's smooooth contours.' The Garden sent back a polite refusal, saying it had prior commitments with a Vault it had helped infect before the war." Among the carriers found in the old station, Patient Zero, inferred to be the first test subject in the experiments that created the plant, can be found along with a couple of spore plants.
==Layout==
A long metal staircase leads from the canyon floor to a ruined building in the upper area. Red crystals, which give off light during the night, are embedded in the surrounding canyon walls. The garden is guarded by spore plants and spore carriers.
==Notable loot==
* Sink Project: Biological Research Station - Holotape, in the upper area of the garden, near a hot plate and a duffle bag by the staircase.
* Seed package - On the second level of the upper area.
* Black blood sausage - On the corpse of Patient Zero.
==Related quests==
* All My Friends Have Off Switches
* Field Research
==Notes==
If the Biological research station is activated, during the ending of Old World Blues, it tries to start a relationship with the X-22 facility, but is rejected due to a "prior commitment" to a Vault it had "infected".
