The bullet tree in Jamaica, known scientifically as Bucida buceras, got its name from the shape of its hard, round seeds that resemble bullets. Indigenous people and early settlers likely associated the seeds' appearance with ammunition, leading to the common name. The tree is also valued for its durable wood, often used in furniture and construction.
