Plant Heritage carries out vital work in the United Kingdom. Plants are essential for all life on earth and with the current global challenges such as climate change, emerging pests and diseases, and changing fashions too, cultivated plants are threatened and we need your help in continuing our work.

Your gift would help fund our National Plant Collections® scheme, which is at the heart of the conservation work we do, creating a living library of cultivated plants across the UK.

There are over 700 National Plant Collections and we aim to register many more plant groups to protect our plant diversity, for people to enjoy today and tomorrow.

Your support will also help us to:

  • expand the Plant Guardian scheme, to save more rare and unusual plants
  • continue our Threatened Plants Programme, which tracks and assesses cultivated plants, to identify those most at risk of disappearing, to inform conservation work done by us and our partners
  • fund a volunteer to visit and assess proposed new Collections for the scheme
  • fund training workshops to update Collection Holders on plant related topics including research, herbarium specimens and micropropagation, plant health
