Interesting, I didn't know about those kinds of pines, I will looking for more information. Nature is really clever, even when there are obstacles, she finds the way to survive.

Good if you come to WEKU. I have the same user, so we will see each other soon there.
Have a good week.

Yosemite Sequoias Need Fire

The heat opens their seed cones, their seeds are released, the flames clear the earth for their germination. While lesser trees blaze around them, the giant sequoias stand virtually unscathed by the flames. They're remarkably fire resistant.

Fire and wildlife

To release their seeds, the cones of several evergreen trees such as pines, must be exposed to high temperatures to melt their waxy seals. Pine barrens are also home to rare and beautiful plants such as blazing star, wild lupine, and sandplain gerardia (an endangered species) that also need fire to reproduce.

O: O: Thanks for sharing all of this with me, I will research more about it anyway. Have a good day :)
