Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Slash Pine (Pinus Elliottii), Including South Florida Slash Pine: Nomenclature and Description
Along the marshes near the mouths of the fresh-water rivers, (at least in Georgia) this pine is very common. It is frequently called the smooth-bark Loblolly Pine. It becomes occasionally a very large tree; its bark is as smooth as that of P. Palustris but in longer scales; it has more sap-wood than any of our pines, and its leaves I have found in some in stances by twos and threes indiscriminately mingled even on the old branches.
