Donate today to save our native plant diversity!

Our native plants are under increasing threat due to invasive species and diseases, changing fire regimes, habitat clearing, grazing, climate change, droughts, floods and cyclones. 90% of the plant species found in Australia are found nowhere else in the world. 1,402 of these are listed as threatened at the national level, with 220 critically endangered, which makes national coordination, collaboration, information sharing and guidelines all the more urgent to save our plants from extinction. That’s where Plant Conservation Australia comes in.

Please make a tax-deductible donation here to join us in this critical work.

Your support will help us deliver our priority plant conservation projects for 2026 including:

• Holding the 15th Australasian Plant Conservation Conference (APCC15) to be held in Port Douglas in August 2026 which will include the formal launch of our new brand, Plant Conservation Australia.
• Continuing the Queensland Threatened Plant Network where we are collaboratively working with many partners towards the conservation, recovery and protection of Queensland’s plant species, particularly those listed as threatened.
• Holding workshops and a two-day symposium on Victorian threatened flora conservation in collaboration with Royal Botanic Gardens Victoria and other partners.
• Holding a priority flora workshop in WA to begin the process of looking at the conservation status of a large number of species that are currently of conservation concern, but data deficient.
• Coordinating recovery actions for four Critically Endangered plants at risk of near-term extinction or serious decline due to Myrtle Rust: Native Guava (Rhodomyrtus psidioides), Angle-stemmed Myrtle (Gossia gonoclada), Scrub Turpentine (Rhodamnia rubescens) and Smooth Scrub Turpentine (Rhodamnia maideniana).
• Undertaking conservation actions for Melaleuca nodosa affected by both the 2019/20 fires and Myrtle Rust.
• Continuing to hold our series of informal virtual get togethers to discuss Myrtle Rust management for practitioners.
• Fundraising to build on our work on the Myrtle Rust threat.
• Fundraising for re-establishment of the Florabank website and promulgation of the Florabank Guidelines, Translocation Guidelines and Germplasm Guidelines.
• Working with our partners on an online platform to support ecological restoration practitioners and Florabank Guidelines training in NSW.
