Kew's work in Madagascar

Palm Conservation

With your support through the Threatened Plant of Madagascar Appeal we are working with our Malagasy colleagues to establish these three flagship species in a new conservation collection of Malagasy palms at the botanic garden at Tsimbazaza and the zoological garden at Ivoloina. We will also explore methods of controlled seed harvesting and nursery cultivation for possible future reintroductions into national parks and other protected sites.
