Brief description
The Victorian Conservation Seedbank is Victoria’s primary facility for the conservation of the state’s most threatened plants. It stores the seeds and spores of native Victorian plants, particularly endemics and at-risk species, forming the basis for our research into effective long-term germplasm storage, germination characteristics, and the propagation of recalcitrant native species. The centre, supported by our associated laboratories and plant propagation nurseries, forms part of Royal Botanic Gardens Victoria’s Bushfire Plant Recovery and Care Unit, which aims to support the restoration of fire damaged landscapes and ecosystems.User Contributed Tags
