Each tree has its own unique color, with the heartwood usually being darker than the sapwood.

Luster in wood is the ability to reflect light on cross-sectional surfaces, resulting from the abundance of starch in the tissues.
The scent in trees arises from essential oils, tannins, resins, and essences. Some trees, like cypress, retain their pleasant scent over time and are used for specific purposes such as in laundry boxes.
Dry trees of the same species transmit sound better than wet trees, with fine-textured trees like spruce reflecting sound vibrations well.
Wood is generally not a good conductor of heat. Hard, tightly textured, and wet trees transmit heat more effectively than soft, sparsely textured, and dry trees.
Wood is not a good conductor of electric current, even in completely dry conditions.
Wood is a source of calories and gives off heat when burned. Different tree types yield varying amounts of heat, with coniferous trees having high-calorie content due to chemicals like resin and betulin.
Hardness varies, with very soft woods (e.g., Poplar) to the hardest woods (e.g., Ebony), influenced by factors like texture and moisture content.
The weight of the tree is closely related to its hardness; hard and tight-textured wood is usually heavy.
Resistance in trees includes bending ability, torsional ability, abrasion ability, and crack ability.
Tree resistance also depends on factors like flexibility, torsion, abrasion, and crack abilities.
