Types of wood for bedrooms The big difference between one wood and another lies in its origin and contexture. There are some that are softer and are used to make accessories or small furniture.

It is of polished appearance and is built by layers that are arranged crossed with each other. However, if we want to know what the types of wood are due to their plant origin, it is convenient to review the most popular species in the furniture industry. NOGALS MOTHER One of the most quoted to manufacture high quality furniture. It has a dark color that varies between the reddish and the brown. His natural veins give him an elegant and sophisticated finish. It is resistant to wear and dense structure, ideal for headboards, cabinets or night tables.

The Argentine tree that begins its life on top and not on the ground: a wonder of the world
In Argentina, an extraordinary and unique tree grows in the world, known by a characteristic as unusual as fascinating: it is not born on the ground, but on other trees. It is a species originally from the Argentine northeast that develops as an epiphyte in its early stages of life. This behavior allows you to settle at the top of the forest before extending its roots to the ground. Present in the provinces of Misiones, Corrientes, Entre Ríos and the north of Buenos Aires, this tree is part of the riverside forests and the jungles in gallery. Admired for its form of growth and its relationship with other species, it fulfills a key ecological role in the coastal ecosystems, offering food and shelter to birds, insects and small mammals. The Higuerón is a tree that begins its life on the branches of another tree, where its seeds germinate, generally transported by frugivorous birds. From there, it develops aerial roots that grow towards the ground, looking for nutrients and water. As these roots swell, they can completely wrap the host tree, a phenomenon that has given rise to the popular name of strangulator (although it does not always kill the tree that sustains it). It can reach up to 15 meters high, and is characterized by having coriacea leaves, small fruits similar to figs, and a white latex that acts as a defense against insects. Its flowers are so small that they can only be observed with magnifying glass and are contained within the fruit. In addition, its wood has been used limitedly in light carpentry and its cortex has medicinal properties recognized in traditional medicine. This tree not only surprises with its biology, but also for its value in the regeneration of the forest and its ability to colonize cracks of old walls and walls, even in urban areas. Trees that grow unusually: where do they come from? According to botanists and ecologists, there are other trees in the world that, such as the Higuerón, have out of the common growth: ? Higuerón (Ficus Luschnathian - Argentina and Brazil): Epiphyte tree that develops aerial roots from the top to the ground. ? Ficus Benghalensis (India): known as Baniano, its aerial roots form true forests from a single copy. ? Ficus aurea (Central America): Typical strangulative tree, with development similar to Higuerón. ? Ceiba Pentandra (Amazonas): develops huge buttresses to hold its height in shallow soils. ? Tabaquillo (Polylepis Australis - Argentina): Grows in High Mountain and its cortex follows in fine layers as paper. ? The Argentine Higueron is a true botanical rarity. Its way of life begins suspended in the air and ends rooted on earth, connecting the sky with the ground. Because of its structural beauty, its contribution to biodiversity and its surprising way of growing, it is one of the most curious and admirable trees of the Forests of the Northeast Argentine.
