Jarrah has been used traditionally for boatbuilding, railway sleepers and telegraph poles because of its durability and hardness. Jarrah has a smooth surface and straight graining, which has also made it sought after for the manufacture of furniture, doors and floors.

The sapwood and heartwood vary from salmon-pink to deep red. Finished floors often have a dark brown to reddish purple colour, which also deepens over the years.

Botanical name: Eucalyptus Marginata
