Description

This beautifully illustrated Chinese-English bilingual guide presents a carefully curated collection of 20 plant species native to Hong Kong, with scientific, detailed pen and ink illustrations and morphological descriptions, providing important reference materials for species authentication.

Of the 20 species selected, 15 are rare and endangered species, making this guide of special importance for plant preservation in Hong Kong, as well as for botanists, plant lovers, and illustrators.

This is the first volume of Shiu-Ying Hu Herbarium Scientific Illustration Series."To see these beautiful illustrations, the photos and the commentary about the plants that accompany them makes us wish that all of the rich and diverse flora of Hong Kong could be treated similarly."-- David E.

Boufford, Senior Research Scientist, Harvard University Herbaria & Editorial Committee Member of Flora of China
