City of Bogo's name origin has always been embedded in the heart and soul of every Bogohanon.  It is no mystery that the name points to the Bogo trees that thrived in the place where early people came to trade. The tree is called by other names in different provinces and countries. 

English Garuga
Indonesia Kayu kambing (Sulawesi, Moluccas), ki langit (Sundanese), wiyu (Javanese).
Papua New Guinea Garuga
Philippines Bogo (Cebuano), Burus (Iloko), Abilo (Tagalog).
Trade Name Kedondong

The scientific name of this tree is Garuga floribunda Decne, which early botanists found abundant in Iloilo, northern Mindanao and the Central Visayas. Below is the Taxonomy Hierarchy of the Bogo Tree:

Kingdom: Plantae
   ↪ Phylum: Magnoliophyta
      ↪ Class: Magnoliatae
         ↪Order: Sapindales
            ↪Family: Burseraceae
               ↪Genus: Garuga
                  ↪Specie: Garuga floribunda Decne

Uses

  • Fodder: The leaves are used for fodder (food for livestock).
  • Food: The fruit is edible. 
  • Medicine: A decoction of the bark has been given after childbirth. 
  • Tannin or dyestuff: A decoction of the leaves has been used to dye mats made from Corypha leaves black. 
  • Timber: The wood of G. floribunda is used for general construction, bridge building, posts, light duty flooring, furniture and cabinet work, interior trim, mouldings, shelving, skirting, sporting goods, agricultural implements, boxes and crates, carvings, toys and novelties, and turnery. It is also used for the production of veneer and plywood.
  • Shade or shelter: G. floribunda is occasionally planted as a shade tree.

Planting Your Own Bogo Tree

Clear the area where you want to plant your seedling with unwanted weeds and debris. Make sure that a one-meter radius is kept free from other vegetation. Dig a plant hole with dimensions of at least 20 cm x 20 cm x 20 cm. Plant the seedling at proper depth. Root collar should be at level with or a little below the ground surface with the seedling oriented upward. Fill the hole with top or garden soil and press soil firmly around the base of the seedling. In plantation-making, seedlings should maintain a two-meter distance between seedlings if planted in a row of a three-meter distance from one strip to the next strip.

A 7-Eleven store is set to open soon at P. Rodriguez St., Bogo City. The store is located just across Gaisano Bogo. From its grand launch at Escario Central last year, 7-Eleven has now more than 10 branches in Cebu.

7-Eleven Bogo City, Cebu


7 - Eleven is the world's largest operator, franchisor, and licensor of convenience stores with more than 50,000 outlets worldwide. The store started in 1927 and got its name because it opened from 7 a.m. until 11 p.m., which was considered to be "extended hours" back in the mid-1900s. 7-Eleven started to stay open for 24 hours on 1963 at a store in Austin, Texas. Read the story here: Open Around the Clock.
