Issue Date:15th APR'2009

Details:Tung trees come in full blossom in areas where most Hakkas populate. This beautiful coincidence tells the wondrous connection between Hakka towns and Tung trees.

Hakka children used to collect and sell Tung seeds for money. Now when Tung flowers start to shower, strolling along the old streets to watch grannies braiding straw teapot containers and listen to their stories of the yore.

The investigation researches into the phenology, biologic features, ecological distribution, and associated plants of aleurites in an attempt to set up initial biologic data for aleurites.
