Height Growth of Mahogany Seedlings, St. Croix, Virgin Islands

Informally Refereed

Abstract

Small-leaf mahogany seedlings grew more rapidly than bigleaf and their hybrids grew more rapidly than either for the first two years. However, by age 4 and continuing through age 7, both hybrids and bigleaf were significantly taller than small-leaf. Bigleaf suffered the most mortality, followed by small-leaf, then the two hybrids.
