What are the properties of driftwood?

Is a driftwood fire blue and green?

Yes driftwood will burn if it's dry. Will produce pretty colours because of the chemicals added by the sea. However the salt content (in conjunction with heat) can cause problems with metal. It's safest to burn your driftwood on the beach - if allowed. Not a good idea to use lots of it in your metal wood burner or if you have a metal parts to your chimney. Caution! Dioxin is produced when salt water driftwood is burned. It's the byproduct of burning wood and sodium chloride (salt). Dioxin is a persistent toxin, doesn't biodegrade, rather it accumulates in the tissue of any animal that digests it.


What is the law regarding collecting driftwood in Florida?

There is no such law. The only thing you have to keep in mind is - in areas where there is private beach extending all the way to the waterline - the owner of that property "owns" anything that washes up on their property. Anything that washes up on "public" beaches is not protected by property laws.
