Resawn Heart Pine Antique Flooring

Heart Pine is a very popular floor with great degrees of variation from a character grade to a very clear select grade. Heartpine floors are resawn from beams and are not original, walked upon floors. Longleaf Pine is also known as Southern Yellow Pine, Longleaf Yellow Pine, and in the past as Pitch Pine. Heart pine wood is the non-living center of the tree trunk, while the sapwood is the outer living layer of the tree. The amount of heart vs. sap wood creates the possible variations. Heartwood has tight grains, sap wood has loose grains. Select Grade has less knots and nailholes with tighter grains (2,3,4" widths), Character Grade provides a variation of grades and a range of knots (3,5,7" widths.)
