2008 Interim Guidelines for Growing Longleaf Pine Seedlings in Container Nurseries

Dumroese, R. K., Barnett, J. P., Jackson, D. P., and Hainds, M. J. USDA Forest Service, Rocky Mountain Research Station, Pro­ceedings RMRS-P-58. p.101-107. National Proceed­ings: Forest and Conservation Nursery Association ­2008. 2009.

Production of container longleaf pine (Pinus palustris) seedlings for reforestation and restoration plantings exceeds that of bareroot production, but information on container production techniques has been slow to develop. Because success of those outplantings requires quality seedlings, interim guidelines were proposed in 2002 to assist nursery managers and tree planters in developing and using the best stock possible. The guidelines were intended to be updated as new information was generated.
