Plant Paradise on the Blessed Islands

Join us as we explore the exotic volcanic islands of Macaronesia. Known as 'the blessed islands', these islands in the Atlantic Ocean are home to some of the most incredible and diverse plants on earth. With the help of a museum scientist, we will look at what makes the plants of Macaronesia so special, discover how islands provide the perfect conditions for life to change and adapt, and how the age of an island can affect the diversity of plants found there.
