If you like the Shell tree, you'll love the Bouy tree!!! Thats right, a seagrape tree festooned with loads of bouys! This tree is in a front yard of a house on Man-O-War Cay in the Bahamas, but they are common in alot of the island settlements. In the old days it was done to ward off the evil spirits as a form of Obeah (Voodoo). We have done several trees in our yard in bouys, and they look really cool!
