Plants are essential to everyone's lives. Welcome to Plantlife.
Northern Ireland
Northern Ireland’s dramatic cliffs, loughs and peat bogs provide the perfect home for many wild plants, many quite rare elsewhere in the UK. The aged woods of Upper Lough Arne are especially important for lichens and stoneworts.
Plantlife currently does not have an office in Northern Ireland, however we hope to establish our work here in the future.
