Structural Botany: 25AP-263-43
“Structural Botany” is a series that extracts geometric vocabularies from the diverse characteristics of plants, reinterpreting them through artificial structures and modular components. It explores the blurred intersection between natural forms and human-made construction.
No. 25AP-263-43, observed at Swiio Villa Yilan in Zhuangwei, exhibits an upright, clustered growth habit, reaching 2.5–5 meters in height. Individuals are evenly spaced, forming a distinct colony.
Stems are singular, erect, quadrangular, smooth-surfaced, and brown with a central white longitudinal stripe. Occasional apical branching is present; basal nodes are round and raised, with moderate internode spacing.
Leaves are solitary and terminal, one per stem, arranged irregularly with slight upward inclination. Blades are orbicular, entire, thin, and semi-translucent, averaging 1.5 meters in diameter and forming a layered crown structure.

結構植物學：25AP-263-43
《結構植物學（Structural Botany）》系列創作，從植物的多樣特徵中提取幾何語彙，以人造結構與組件進行重新詮釋，探索自然形態與人工製作之間的模糊交集。
結構植物編號25AP-263-43，生長於宜蘭壯圍的二十輪villa，從裡到外，一路蔓延。植株直立叢生，高約 2.5–5 公尺。群體分布呈等距排列，具明顯群落性。莖單一，挺直，方柱形，表面平滑，主色為褐色，中央具一條明顯縱向白色條紋；上部偶有分枝，基部可見數枚圓形凸起節點，節間距中等。葉單生，一莖一葉，著生於莖頂或分枝端，排列錯落，略具傾角。葉片圓形，全緣，葉面薄且略具透光性，直徑相近，約1.5公尺左右，排列成層狀葉冠結構。
