The previous post made me curious about this Divi Divi Tree... so I googled it.

Here's what I found:


The famous Divi Divi treeis Aruba's natural compass, always pointing in a southwesterly direction due to the trade winds that blow across the island
from the north-east.

Aruba's trademark:
the Divi Divi or watapana tree

An interesting observation is that attempts to plant this tree in other parts of the world have proved futile - it seems the Divi Divi is most comfortable in Aruba!


Interesting, yes?
