The Mahogany Tree Site

My Tree

This tree is dedicated to the majestic mahogany tree. This is a project for my Web Design and Computer Graphics class. Our assignment was to pick a tree from the school campus and conduct a small-scale research project on that tree

According to A Pocket Guide to Trees,the mahogany of the keys is the true mahogany of the Amazon jungle. The dark red wood grows darker and richer with age. Florida trees are not large because the biggest ones have been cut down to build boats. But the mahogany trees on St. Croix, and on the St. Joseph High School campus in particular, are beautiful and St. Croix L.E.A.P. uses the wood from trees that are damaged to create beautiful works of art.
