Bandon (/ˈbændən/) is a city in Coos County, Oregon, United States, on the south side of the mouth of the Coquille River. It was named by George Bennet, an Irishman, who settled nearby in 1873 and named the town after his hometown of Bandon in Ireland.
In attempting to bring a taste of his hometown to the newly established Bandon, Bennett introduced the shrub Gorse (also known as Irish furze and Irish hedge), a move that would result in the near destruction of the town 63 years later. The ornamental shrub thrived in the same rich soil that caused Bennett to choose Bandon as a settlement area and soon came to displace native plants.
Gorse, however, could be described as a “phoenix plant,” a plant that likes to encourage fires through secreting oils so as to burn an area of land clean and grow back again as the predominant plant. On September 26, 1936, a small forest fire resulted in the deaths of 10 people and the destruction of all but 16 of Bandon’s 500 homes when a change in wind direction moved the fire in the direction of the gorse hedges which were by then, in places, four feet high. Although the majority of the town's 1,800 people reached safety, the fire destroyed the Bandon’s business district resulting in a loss at the time of $3 million.
