South Carolina's nickname is "The Palmetto State".
The Palmetto was used to complete the unfinished Fort Sullivan (now Moultrie). Palmetto is a soft spongy tree that absorbed and deflected the British fire. The greatly outnumbered Colonial Patriots defeated 9 of the Royal British Navy man-of-war ships including the prized Bristol which was a 50 gun ship!
