The term Southern Coastal Plain region is used to delineate the geographic area of the southeastern United States comprised of southern Georgia, southern Alabama, and northern Florida. The Southern Coastal Plain experiences a mild, temperate climate and can support a number of tropical and semi-tropical forage plant species. This region is located at the extreme limits for both tropical and temperate forage species. (SS-AGR-81/AA265: Forage Production in the Southern Coastal Plain Region)

Selecting Coastal Plain Species for Wind Resistance
FR174/FOR119 by Mary L. Duryea and Eliana KampfJuly 28, 2021A team of UF/IFAS scientists studied 10 hurricanes to determine their effect on the urban forest. One of the major goals of this study was to assemble lists of relative wind resistance for different urban tree species to help communities prepare for hurricane seasons. This fact sheet presents the research and methodology that lead to these lists, discusses the results and presents recommendations for selecting and establishing trees for a healthier and more wind-resistant urban forest.
