Slash Pines in Distance

Slash Pines in Distance

Slash pines (Pinus elliottii) in the distance at Corkscrew Swamp Sanctuary. They get their name because early pioneers would cut a slash in the tree and use the sap that flowed to make pine tar and oil for a disinfectant, insecticide, and turpentine.
