Breadth of Tree Diversity in Southeast

The west coast is spectacular, even the trees reach heights of over 350 feet.   However, the breadth of tree diversity does not compare to the Southeast.   Consider trees you can select just for the understory in this region: Sassafras, Silverbell, Dogwood, Sourwood, Yellow Wood, Paw Paw… the list goes on.   At some point even overstory trees like white oak and yellow popular are understory trees.   Next time you are in the forest in Georgia, enjoy its breadth and diversity!
