contrast exquisitely with the deep

are never abundant. They stand

The wood produced by this tree is
among the finest known in South
America. 1t has a ruby-red color,
with Streaks of deeper red; some
times the lighter shades of red will

orange-red will be found. When

All OF these fine qualities would

Where these trees grow in numbers
they are used for important dock

important item in bringing them
