The Lignum Vitae is the national flower of Jamaica and it is indigenous to Jamaica. People outside of Jamaica did not not know about this flower until plants were taken from Jamaica to England in 1793 by Captain William Bligh. One of the earliest local growers of the tree was Dr Thomas Clarke who introduced it to the eastern parishes in 1778.
