Natural regeneration is now a reliable alternative for existing longleaf pine forests.

Tough regeneration problems have given longleaf pine a bad reputation among foresters, and as a result longleaf is commonly replaced, upon harvest, by other species. Major problems associated with longleaf natural regeneration include:
