[6] W. wallichii is used in a cedarwood oil with multiple uses such as in Texas, it used as feedstock and in Virginia it is used for cosmetics like perfumes, aftershave lotions, and soaps.
Wildfires occur in the area causing W. wallichii mature trees to die frequently.
[11] W. wallichii growth rate is slower compared to their counterparts which is a factor in population decline of the species.
[13] The seeds are left under the canopy of mature trees and waiting for the winds and runoff water.
Their regeneration due to lack of seed dispersal from the blockage of litter and otherwise stated is inhibited as well.
[15] Also using pre heated seeds in previously burnt areas from wildfires increases success of growth.
