Cupressus Sempervirens Sache

Cypress sapwood is a very light color, comprising only a small part of the tree, while its heartwood displays a stunning range of hues from pale yellow-brown to dark reddish-brown, sometimes verging on black. This variation in color often indicates the wood’s decay resistance, with darker heartwood being more resilient. Cypress wood is renowned for its exceptional durability, stability, and resistance to water and rot, making it an excellent choice for a variety of applications, including construction, caskets, piers, bridges, boats, siding, sashes, doors, stadium seats, posts, cooperage, and railroad ties. For interior uses, cypress excels in trim, architectural woodwork, doors, and flooring. Its suitability for turnery wood adds to its versatility. Cypress is most commonly available as lumber, but it is also sold in the form of plywood and veneers, meeting diverse needs in woodworking and construction.
