FIRE EFFECTS

SPECIES: Rosa gymnocarpa | Baldhip Rose
IMMEDIATE FIRE EFFECT ON PLANT : Aboveground portions of the plant are killed by fire. Root crowns and underground rhizomes typically survive low- to moderate-severity fires [17,19,26,27,29,33]. Severe fires can cause damage to root crowns, decreasing potential regrowth [13]. DISCUSSION AND QUALIFICATION OF FIRE EFFECT : NO-ENTRY PLANT RESPONSE TO FIRE : Baldhip rose rapidly recovers following low- to medium-severity fires. Top-killed plants typically sprout vigorously from the root crown or rhizomes [17,19,25,27,29,33]. Seedlings are rarely observed in a burn area [25,29]. No seedlings were present on clearcut 2-year-old burns in a western redcedar/queencup beadlily (Thuja plicata/Clintonia uniflora) habitat type in northern Idaho [26]. DISCUSSION AND QUALIFICATION OF PLANT RESPONSE : NO-ENTRY FIRE MANAGEMENT CONSIDERATIONS : NO-ENTRY
