Plants of Bermuda

by grandmaR - last update: Dec 30, 2004

From the hotel dining room
I was taking a picture of a destroyer leaving the harbor when we were at breakfast.
Tour group looked at a Bermuda cedar
The cedar is a wonderful rich looking wood that is endemic to Bermuda. That means it doesn't grow anywhere else. (It's also not really a cedar.) The first shipwrecked mariners used it to rebuild the Deliverance which took them on to Virginia. It is also extensively used for woodwork in places like St. Peters in St. George.

Another picture of the cedar in the Botanical Garden.

Additional pictures of Bermuda plants can be seen at the Botanical Garden pages at Botanical Guarden Tour
Large old tree in the Botanical Garden
Plants at the Botanical Garden
Section of rock garden with grasses and flowers
Chenille plant and Bird of Paradise (Botanic Gard)
Many tropical and sub-tropical plants from all over the world can be grown successfully in Bermuda. The Bird of Paradise comes from Hawaii I think.
Botanical Garden
Old trees have such interesting gnarled limbs.
Stables on the grounds Botanic Garden
Century plants and palms in the stable area.
