Lui has been highly productive and has written a comprehensive book on Rare and Threatened Plants of South East Queensland.
The book details amazing and clear images which show identifiable characteristics in the field and covers 325 locally found plant species that are rare and threatened.
We are so proud of Lui's effort and contribution to knowledge in our local community.
