Seed Orchards and Seed Production at Westvaco
In the fall of 1949 Westvaco Experimental Forest was very happy to grant permission to a group of high school students to collect loblolly pine cones from our sawlog operation. We were quite surprised when the leader of the group stopped by the office to thank us and said "The trees you are cutting are too long and leen. They have only a few cones on them. If you get into some short, scrubby stuff with a lot of cones let us know."
