The southern longleaf pine (Pinus palustris) is a tree species native to the southeastern United States, characterized by its long, slender needles and tall, straight trunk. It plays a crucial role in the ecosystem by supporting a diverse range of wildlife and promoting biodiversity. Historically dominant in fire-adapted ecosystems, it has been significantly reduced due to logging and land conversion. Conservation efforts are underway to restore longleaf pine forests and their associated habitats.
There are four main species of Southern Pine - shortleaf, longleaf, loblolly, and slash. Long Leaf Southern Pine is heavy, hard, strong and coarse grained. It is very durable when dry and well ventilated. It cannot be used in contact with the ground. It is used for heavy framing timbers and floors. Short Leaf Southern Pine can vary greatly in quality but is used as a substitute for long leaf pine.
