cypress pine

Pollen from cypress pine trees, which have few natural protections against fire, fell dramatically, whereas pollen from more fire-tolerant eucalyptus, shrubs, and grasses became more common.

So I loaded both barrels, squatted down on uh log where I had dead aim on dat big ole cypress pine where they roosts at.

The land, although not very rich, had the best grasses, and cotton, and saltbush upon it; the sandhill was wooded with cypress pine and other trees.

We were now traversing another very pretty valley running nearly west, with fine cotton and salt-bush flats, while picturesque cypress pines covered the hills on both sides of us.

This rampart-like ridge was festooned with cypress pines, and had there been water there, I should have thought it a very pretty place.
