Southern Yellow Heart Pine |
|
Heart pine is the old growth yellow pine once common in the American South and Atlantic Coast regions. These trees were very dense and high in resign content. As a result, heart pine is very durable. It is not uncommon to find boards with 15+ growth rings to the inch. Many old factory buildings were built using heart pine because the trees grew quite large, were very straight and had long trunks.
