Collection: Madagascar

From the towering limestone pinnacles of Tsingy de Bemaraha to ancient baobab forests and the remarkable spiny thickets of the island's south, Madagascar is one of the world's greatest centers of plant diversity. Isolated from mainland Africa for millions of years, it has become home to an extraordinary collection of species found nowhere else on Earth.

Its remarkable landscapes have given rise to iconic succulents, pachycauls, and caudiciform plants, each uniquely adapted to thrive in one of the planet's most fascinating ecosystems.

Every plant tells the story of the place that shaped it.

Explore the remarkable species that call Madagascar home.
