We measure longleaf restoration success not just i We measure longleaf restoration success not just in the number of longleaf pine trees planted or longleaf acres gained but also in how well we manage longleaf to promote a healthy ecosystem. Prescribed fire is the most effective tool to achieve those goals. In 2024, longleaf partners set a new record – applying prescribed fire to 2,290,436 acres! This was a half million increase compared to 2023. Most of the reported burn acreage occurred on public lands, but about 30% of the increase comes from private lands.This achievement contributes to the remarkable 20+ million acres of prescribed fire implemented across the Southeast since 2010.Check out the full 2024 Accomplishment Report from America's Longleaf > longleafalliance.org > news (link in bio)
Feelin’ pine in RED, WHITE, and BLUE! The charac Feelin’ pine in RED, WHITE, and BLUE! The characteristic green needles of #longleaf are not the only eye-catching colors of this iconic tree. 🔴 Reddish bark: Its thick, fire-resistant bark has a warm, rusty hue.⚪ White candles: New growth emerges from the needle cluster, resembling a white candle, before new green needles emerge. 🔵 Bluish pollen: Male pollen cones (strobili) are blue-ish/purple when mature.Longleaf brings natural color to the landscape and supports a whole host of dazzling native species. Nature’s fireworks are truly something to celebrate! 📷Photos by Karen Zilliox Brown, Ryan Bollinger, and Sarah Crate #LongleafPine #RedWhiteAndBlue #NaturesFireworks
