…. the plant will come back from its roots. The English and Spanish explorers saw massive fires
in what is now Southern California 100s of years ago from their ships. One of the problems is that
you can remove the vegetation around your home on flat ground but the chaparral on the steep slopes
and cliffs is still there and it will burn like crazy from the bottom to the top of a hillside in minutes.
