Yellow Slash Pine (Pinus Elliottii) 10 seeds

Slash pine is a fast growing child of the Southeast U.S. where it was once tapped for turpentine. It is native in flat woods and coastal plains from the Carolinas to Florida and west to Louisiana. The medium-length needles are borne in twos, sometimes threes. The cones are hand-sized, brown and shiny, and offer considerable wildlife value
This tall pine, on average home sites, may prove too large over time. It is best for parks, open spaces, woodlots, and for reforesting large properties. Slash pine is vulnerable to a number of pests and diseases, limiting its use in certain areas. It is not particularly long-lived and often used as first-phase trees for shade while longer-lived species such as oaks mature and then the pines are thinned out. (source: learn2gvrow.com)
