Botany by Your Side: Hong Kong's Seasonal Colours—Spring
This set of books are divided into four volumes and contain 100 common plants in urban and rural areas of Hong Kong.
The books systematically use the most prominent colours of plants (flower colour, fruit colour, leaf colour) as an index. You can easily find the information based on the colour even if you have no idea of the name of the variety. The books contain more than 1,600 physical photos from different angles and focal lengths, which can be combined with the 3D plant model records produced by Shiu-Ying Hu Herbarium, as well as the 360-degree VR environment records that can observe the real growth status of plants, using new angles and digital interactive media to explore the plants around us.
Spring
In spring, after the cold winter, the earth warms up and regains its vitality. It is the season when many plants sprout and bloom in conjunction with long-lost animal activities. This volume is themed on varieties that display striking flower colours during the spring flowering period. A total of 25 varieties include: purple, red, yellow, green, white and other colours; plus 1 variety with bright purple-red leaves, the entire volume contains 26 species.
