Characteristic and wood color
Sapwood and heartwood are not different. The wood is reddish-white to light grey. The heart is generally without any special colouring. Occurring reddish brown heart colouring, so-called "false heartwood" is a disease symptom of the wood. The medullary rays are very broad and sharply defined, pores can only be seen with a magnifying glass. The growth zones are clearly visible by darker late wood with fewer pores than annual rings.
