Survival of sand pine seedlings affected by time of lifting and bale-storage period

Sand pines growing within their natural range of Florida and coastal Alabama seldom remain dormant throughout an entire winter. Growth flushes frequently occur after unseasonably warm weather during winter along the eastern Gulf Coast. Choctawhatchee sand pine (Pinus clausa var. immuginata Ward), the more northern variety, requires longer periods of warm winter weather to break dormancy than does Ocala sand pine (P. clausa var. clausa Ward) (8).
