Domestic Hardwoods
Ash, White

White Ash grows in all three regions. In the North, the texture of the lumber is firmest while Southern White Ash features a higher sapwood content. White Ash is moderately hard, heavy and strong.
White Ash is used in furniture, cabinets, veneer, flooring, handles and baseball bats. Northern White Ash is occasionally called Brown Ash due to its high heartwood content. White Ash is sometimes used as a substitute for Red Oak.
