The term hardwood is used to describe wood from broad-leaved angiosperm trees, mostly deciduous, but not necessarily, in the case of tropical trees. Hardwood contrasts with softwood, which comes from conifer trees. On average, hardwood is of higher density and hardness than softwood, but there is considerable variation in actual wood hardness in both groups, with a large amount of overlap; some hardwoods (e.g. balsa) are softer than most softwoods, while yew is an example of a hard softwood.
