Early Evaluation of a Seed Source Study in Eastern Redcedar in South Carolina


Eastern redcedar is an important and widespread coniferous species occurring throughout the eastern half of the United States (exclusive ofsouth Florida) and in southern Canada. The climatic conditions that prevail over this large area are reflective of the great adaptability of this species and include a growing season variability ranging from 1.20 days in the northwest to 250 days or more in the southeast, and precipitation extremes from 16 to more than 60 inches annually. Nor are the soils on which it grows any less variable, since it does occur on dry rock outcrops, deep alluvial soils, limestone bluffs, heavy clays and swampy ground, with pH ranges of 4.7 to7.8 (Williamson, 1957, U. S. Forest Service, 1965).
