Plants depend on their climate to grow. Weather conditions affect plant growth. Some plants need a large amount of water while others need low temperatures.
This is why there are different plants in different countries around the world.

7. Mangroves
Mangroves are trees or bushes that grow in thick clusters along seashores and riverbanks. 
They are found in parts of Asia, Africa, Australia, and the Americas.
Mangroves can grow in places where very few other trees can. For example, they can grow in salty water because they are able to filter out the salt. In addition, they can stand in soft, wet soil because of their strong roots.

They require a lot of water.
There is plenty of rainfall in Ireland and England which is why they grow so well.
