  1. WHY YOUR FIRE NEEDS HARDWOOD

  2. ABOUT SOFTWOOD TREES Softwood trees are mature faster and evergreen. They don’t shed their leaves during autumn and winter, so if you’re randomly naming the kinds of trees that you know, it’s likely that you’re listing softwoods.

  3. ABOUT HARDWOOD TREES Hardwood trees are more dense, which makes them ‘harder’ in grain and texture. The density means there’s more pulp to burn at any given time, which means hardwoods take longer to burn all the way through.

  4. DIFFERENCE BETWEEN HARDWOODS AND SOFTWOODS Hardwood is generally more expensive than softwood. Softwood is a lot smokier than Hardwood.

  5. SOFTWOODS AND HARDWOODS Softwoods grow faster and are more plentiful. A hardwood firewood tree can take up to 100 years to grow to full size, while a softwood is considered ‘full grown’ at 25.
