Yaupon holly, raytan and dry pine trees. Yaupon does not burn, it explodes, full of wax.

Yeah. It’s crazy how some of that stuff burns. There are many species, particularly palmetto grasses and palm trees that can burn at 200% moisture content. There are many pines that readily burn with a fair moisture content.

Thanks for sharing what tree species are there. I’m always fascinated by that stuff.
