Alder is a soft but stable wood, with uniform color and grain. There is no clear delineation between heart- and sap-wood, creating a worm, honey color throughout.

In our Mesa grade, Alder will contain color variation, knots up to 2” in diameter, including open knots, holes up to ¾” in diameter, cracks which don’t compromise the integrity of the flooring, along with other character marks. We do allow edge defect in this grade. Lengths of planks vary from 1’ to 10’, with an approximate average of 6’.
