Media reviews

"This nicely-produced hardback provides portraits of 109 trees found in Hong Kong and southern China, with a number of commonly occurring introduced trees. [...] The nice thing about this book is the enthusiasm of the authors for their subject which comes across to the reader. The book and its illustrations should stimulate interest in Hong Kong’s tree flora, help people find and identify the trees around them and encourage efforts to conserve them. [...]"
– Christabel King, The Linnean 36(1), April 2020
