Short leaf pines can resist fire as they possess fire tolerant traits though they are not completely fireproof.

The features of short leaf pines include the ability to sprout speedily, the thick platy bark protects the cambium from fire and the ample number of seed crops and cones allowing seedlings to recover after a fire.

Apart from that a short leaf is resistant to the rot caused by fire and doesn’t adapt to drought conditions.
