Re: Hurricane Coming to My House: You Are All Invited
I remember reading about the Black Saturday bush fires; they were terrible tragedies. The flip side is that, we, like you, have pyrophytic species like eucalyptus and lodgepole pine trees that must have fires to germinate because their seed casings are so tightly covered with resin. Aside from the obvious fertilzing benefits, large-area fires have been partially successful in knocking back the parasitic beetle blooms like the one that has been devastating Colorado forests.
