Brief
Introduction
Nature conservation
includes conservation of plant species, particularly
those which are rare and precious. However, documentation
on these
invaluable natural resources is often limited. Rare and
Precious Plants of
Hong Kong introduces some of these lesser-known but precious
plants of Hong
Kong. For easy reference, every plant in this book is fully
described and
photographed whenever possible. With this publication,
we hope to increase
the awareness of the general public about flora conservation
and stimulate
greater interest of academics and researchers in further
studying these
precious plants.
