本文目的在描繪傳統鄒族植物的知識典範，並描述近來部落植物變遷的故事及其文化意義。過去這幾十年間，鄒族部落的植物發生許多變化，有的植物被清除，有的植物被移入，也有的植物不請自來，這樣的植物變遷帶來新的植物知識體系，也改變鄒族原有的認知模式。作者認為，移植外地物種，學習新的植物知識，是當今現代性與混雜性文化的必然現象。而跨界流動、移植與學習的過程中，自我周遭原本的植物知識體系該如何保存與轉化，更是當前最值得關注的面向。

This paper investigates the paradigm of traditional the Tsous' Plants, and the stories about the shifting of the Tsous' plants recently. In the past decade, there are a lot of shift in the plants, some of which are swept, some are imported, and some just appeared. The shifting of plants here brings new knowledge systems, and also changed the original cognitive models. The author claims importing species and learning new plants knowledge are an inevitable phenomenon, which combines modernity and hybridity. The most worth to pay attention is how to preserve and to shift original plants knowledge systems in the process of cross-border mobility, transferring and learning.
