ironwood tree
Ironwood tree generally refers to a wide range of tree species known for their hard, dense wood, often seen in tropical or desert climates. The term 'ironwood' is used commonly to denote several species like Ostrya spp, Mesua Ferrea or Pyinkado trees, which produce heavy wood that is remarkably strong, durable, and resistant to decay or infestation. The name "ironwood" is derived from their wood's iron-like strength and hardness. Additionally, Ironwood trees are often long-lived trees and some are even semi-evergreen. Specific characteristics including size, shape, and type of foliage may vary based on the species.
