Immediately after a fire, plants that disperse seeds widely - such as those whose seeds are carried by wind - are the first to recolonize. Many of the plants that burned up will re-emerge from the ground if their root system is still alive. Some trees benefit from fires and the decreased competition for sunlight and will grow over the next few decades.
