Botanical Gardens Conservation International (BGCI)
Botanic Gardens Conservation International is the only global consortium of botanic gardens devoted to conserving the world’s plant diversity. Our membership includes more than 500 botanic gardens whose collections include at least a third of the world’s plant species. Together we are working to conserve all plant diversity for future generations. It is estimated that 80,000 species of plants are threatened in the wild. BGCI and its members are committed to preventing plant species extinctions by conserving plants both in the wild and ex situ in seed banks and botanic gardens.
