Hardwood comes from deciduous trees, or trees that lose their leaves every year, while softwood comes from conifers like pine and fir, which are generally evergreen. The deciduous trees usually grow more slowly than the conifers, resulting in a wood that is harder. Some examples of hardwood are teak, cherry, mahogany, and oak.Â
