Hi Nigel,
I don't remember the exact numbers but US News had a nice article about
the number of forest fires in Florida over the last three years.
While the number may be up this year, I was struck by the high number of
forest fires that are normal. As I said, I don't remember the specific
numbers but generally the number of fires each year is 100,000 or
200,000. Maybe someone else has a better memory for the numbers.
Florida also has a terrestrial orchid that needs fire to flower.
David
