PLANKS TO YOU - Janka Hardness Chart that looks the most accurate so far with Brazilian Cherry at 2820 Janka, Tauri (Brailian Oak) at 1460 Janka and Amendoim at 1920 Janka which agreed to what BR-111 used to list as Janka Ratings before Website Change. I see what you mean. Some sites have Tauri at 880 and other sites have it at 2920 but the majority have the rating at 1460 and say it is 13% harder than American Red Oak. From pictures on the BR-111 site, it appears Amendoim is darker with a touch of red/pink compared to Tauari that is more tannish with less color variation. But then again, I have seen Brazilian Oak floors that are so knotty. I wonder if there are so many types of Brazilian Oak and there is not a standard for stores that all their wood this? Now I am curious also and would love more input from others more knowelegeable. Here is a link that might be useful: This has both Tauri & Amendoim listed with Janka Rating & the Brazilian Cherry is correct

Hmmm...maybe some kind of Echevaria...? That's my best guess looking at the flowers. I'm sure other more knowledgeable members will chime in with a more specific answer. Tyler

Oh thank you Sherry, they are visiting us here in Missouri and loved to find out what it was. Carolyn

6/8/26 Beware of Wilson Brothers Gardens. I made two online purchases from them, which went well. The third purchase was a nightmare. Communication via email is preferable because you have a record of who said what, and in the case of a dispute that is important. They sold me a Magnolia that was supposed to have brown backs on the leaves (my other four trees of this variety all do - younger and older than the one they sent me). They said to wait 2 - 3 years for the brown backs on the leaves to develop. Stall tactic. Then when I contacted them again recently they said to wait until mid to late summer for the brown backs to develop. I waited the 2 -3 years but by that time my credit card company would not honor my dispute. Had I contacted my credit card company in May 2023 when the tree arrived, Wilson Brothers Gardens would have given them the 2- 3 years story. I could not win either way.
