Episode 26 What’s the Deal with Pine, Cherry, and Yellowheart

04.06.2020 by shannon // Leave a Comment

3 Species, 3 Market Trends

This episode I talk about 3 species: Pine, Cherry, and Yellowheart all with similar questions about pricing and availability.  Radiata Pine vs Common Pine examination shows a shrinking of the price gap while Cherry is hit or miss on the availability.  Finally Yellowheart may not be available at all...for now.  3 totally different  species but all 3 face the same market demands and manifest them differently.
