Pinus elliottii, commonly known as slash pine, [2] [3] is a conifer tree native to the Southeastern United States. Slash pine is named after the "slashes" – swampy ground overgrown with trees and bushes – that constitute its habitat. Other common names include swamp pine, yellow slash pine, and southern Florida pine. [3]
Longleaf pine takes 100 to 150 years to become full size and may live to be 500 years old. When young, they grow a long taproot, which usually is 2–3 metres (6 + 1 ⁄ 2 –10 feet) long; by maturity, they have a wide spreading lateral root system with several deep 'sinker' roots.
Fire causes sand pine cones to open and release their seeds to replace the stand. Most shrubs regrow from their roots, while rosemary regrows from seed. [18] As previously noted, the Florida scrub and longleaf pine sandhill (high pine) communities are closely associated, growing on the same types of soil and under very similar conditions.
[13] [14] The longleaf pine (Pinus palustris) is characterized as having bushy clusters of 10 inches (25 cm) long needles and large 6 to 12 inches (15 to 30 cm) long pine cones. These pines are capable of growing 80 to 100 feet (24 to 30 m) tall with a diameter of 2.5 feet (80 cm) across, only in well suited soil.
