State forester Emily Martin guided a dozen Sarracenias on a mile-long walk in Wakulla State Forest. The property, like so much land acquired in recent times by the State of Florida, is a long-term restoration project where management must decide on different goals for different zones. The return of a fire regime, by prescribed burns, has already begun. We gave attention to the variety of native trees and shrubs, with Ms. Martin citing their different characteristics.
