Daniel Island Horticulture

Posted By targetmarket on May 15, 2014 | 2 comments


Daniel Island has a long history of communities living off the land. Indians used items grown or made here to trade with Spaniards and other area settlers in the surrounding lands. Later, after European settlers moved onto the island, bricks, rice, lumber, lime, cotton and indigo became popular exports.

  1. Daniel Island has many significant oaks. Is it recognized that the Delta Post Oak (Quercus similis) which is chiefly in the lower Gulf Coast region is disjunct at a couple of sites in coastal South Carolina? One of these is on Daniel Island.
