According to the source of campus herbs, there are 35 native plants, accounting for 61.4% of the total number of species, and 22 exotic plants, accounting for 38.6% of the total number of species. Perennial herbs account for the largest proportion of campus herbs, accounting for 52.6% of the total number of species, 36.8% of annual herbs and 12.6% of first-year and second-year herbs.
