Pinus elliottii Slash pine varies from 60-100 feet in height and averages about 2 feet in diameter. In virgin forests the species was found in depressions, around ponds, and on low sites with an abundance of moisture largely because of its relative sensitivity to fire. With the advent of fire control slash pine has invaded drier sites in combination with the more fire resistant longleaf pine. It quickly seeds disturbed sites and its rapid juvenile growth make it very aggressive on abandoned land. Slash pine is a valuable source of wood for the timber and pulp industries, and its copious gum production is valued in the naval stores industry.

Our Select Premium Slash source represents the best families "selected" from the premium slash population. It will produce 36% more volume on high rust hazard sites.
