This book is a comprehensive guide to the rare and threatened plants of South Eastern Queensland Australia. Three hundred and Thirty Two (332) Species are profiled and illistrated. This book is a must for anyone working in plant conservation in Eastern Australia. Some of the species are illustrated for the first time and this is the only book currently availble that details conservation significant flora in South Eastern Queensland.A decade in the making, to capture images for this book, Lui climbed many of the mountain peaks in SE QLD to find their endemic plants, often returning more than once to capture that elusive flower or fruit. Lui also abseiled off cliffs to document and conserve some relict species from the last ice age and discovered a couple of taxa new to science in the process. Thousands of kilometers driven and hundreds hiked, into some of the most remote places, in our spectacular corner of Queensland have created this guide to our most conservation signficant flora species. Lets all work together to ensure the survival of our most threatened plants into the future.
