Conservation of endangered and threatened flora is our highest priority. NTBG's Living Collections department collects, curates, grows and outplants propagules from the rarest plants, including species on the Plant Extinction Prevention Program (PEPP) list, which have 50 or fewer individuals remaining in the wild.
