Characteristic and wood color
Sapwood and heartwood are sharply separated, the sapwood being whitish to light grey. Depending on the age of the trunks, the width of the sapwood is very different. The heartwood is yellowish, usually with a reddish shimmer, and irregularly, regardless of the growth zones, darker striped, usually yellow or red or purple. The wood is therefore very decorative.
