Keywords: Longleaf Pine tree Additional Information: The State Park performed a prescribed burn on this pine forest 3 days before I took the photos. Longleaf Pine forests have witnessed natural burns for millennia, and burns maintain these forests. Prescribed burns in pocosins (forested areas) where Venus Flytraps grow, can increase their population sizes.
