 This 667+/- acre
forested site, which consists of two parcels, is located on the west
side of Tomoka Farms Road (County Road 415) north of Pioneer Trail.
The smaller parcel (56 acres) has a direct connection to Tomoka Farms
Road. The larger parcel (600 acres) lies to the west of the smaller
parcel and is square in shape. The existing land use pattern in the
general vicinity of the property is comprised of a mixture of
agriculture, low density single-family residential, and
conservation/open space.
Two (2) major habitat types, wet flatwoods and dome
swamp, dominate the Krol property. Slash and pond pines are the
dominant trees in the flatwoods. The understory is generally comprised
of gallberry, various oaks, palmetto, fetterbush and numerous
herbaceous species. The dome swamps are isolated wetland systems,
which are dominated by pond cypress. Other species, which may occur,
include red maple, swamp laurel oak, cabbage palm, wax myrtle, royal
fern and cinnamon fern. Fall flowering ixia, listed as endangered by
the State of Florida, has been identified on this property. A
significant portion of the property was severely impacted by the
wildfires of 1998. Because of the density of palmetto in this area,
natural re-establishment of pines may not occur or will be slow.
