Botanical Illustrated Guide to Hong Kong Native Plants (Bilingual Edition)
The Chinese University of Hong Kong Press
Produced by the CUHK Shiu-Ying Hu Herbarium, this beautifully illustrated 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.
Noticing the recent trend of STEAM education, the herbarium has written a succinct guide for teaching so the book can be further utilized as an educational tool.
