Jack pine are the easiest conifers to gather for seed because the serotinous cones stay closed until you warm them up

Jack pine are the easiest conifers to gather for seed because the serotinous cones stay closed until you warm them up. Collected year round they stay on the trees waiting for a forest fire. They also germinate without stratification, right after that fire they’ll start regrowing the forest. #seeds #savingseeds #treeseeds #jackpine
