If you just wanted to do a boxplot of one of the subset, you would do
something like:

boxplot(df.s[["A_SEF_Abies alba"]]$age)

If you wanted to do it for all the subset, then something like:

lapply(df.s, function(.sub) boxplot(.sub$age))

What is the problem that you are trying to solve?
Tell me what you want to do, not how you want to do it.
