GREENHEART

botanical name unclear
This name is used for woods from at least a dozen different genera, so it's pretty much meaningless. What I BELIEVE I show below is a South American wood that is used almost exclusively for flooring and heavy construction (dock pilings, etc.).

In the USA, if you see the name greenheart, there is a good chance that it refers to ipe, but that's certainly not necessarily the case.
