Synchronized post-fire release satiates post-dispersal granivores (unlike non-storage and soil storage) and ensures arrival on a seed bed conducive to seedling recruitment (unlike non-storage). canopy stored seeds are better insulated from the heat of a fire than non-stored, and probably soil-stored, seeds.. The botanical review vol. 57 october-december, 1991 no. 4 canopy seed storage in woody plants byron b. lamont,' d. c. le maitre,2 r. m. cowling,3 and n. j. enright4 'school of environmental biology. Storage of seeds in woody fruits or cones in the living plant crown for several to many years (serotiny; lamont et al. 1991) is also prominent in many ?re-prone ecosystems. some canopy-stored seeds may be released during inter-?re periods as fruits open with increasing age in the absence of ?re, but most are released en masse.
