Local Seed Sources Recommended For Loblolly Pine In Maryland And Shortleaf Pine In New Jersey And Pennsylvania PDF Download

In 1951, SFTIC began a pine seed-source study throughout the South. As part of this study, the Northeastern Forest Experiment Station established, between 1953 and 1958, a loblolly pine plantation in eastern Maryland and some shortleaf pine plantations in south-central Pennsylvania and southern New Jersey. Each plantation contained seedlings from several geographic sources. This report describes the results obtained from measurements made between the 1967 and 1968 growing seasons in these plantations.
