I've just found that azalea great fireplace kindling! I just revived a fire that was hard to start with two 1/2 inch sticks of red-flowering azalea that I cut live seven years ago. It's extremely tough by the way - I couldn't break a long stick in half with a reasonable amount of effort standing in front of the fireplace.

While you can burn most woods, I would pass on the arborvitae. As an evergreen, you will get a LOT of creosote, fast burning, short lasting fires. It also contains a toxin believed to be a hallucinogen. A small amount used as kindling may not be a problem.

Is pine good wood to burn in a fireplace?
Pine will make great kindling- to light the fire. However, it will burn very quickly, produce few coals for long lasting heat, and produces a lot of creosote that will need to be cleaned from your chimney. It would be a good idea to keep a little dry pine for kindling, but find a good hardwood such as oak, ash, or hickory for your main fuel wood.

How good is fir to burn in a fireplace?
Not the best. Burns very quickly, generates a lot of creosote. A little bit used as kindling is OK, but would not use a lot of it. When we lived in Colorado, most firewood WAS fir- all that grew in that area.
Does cork burn?
Cork burns great. I was saving them for an art project that I never started. I had about 100 and put 25 at a time in the fireplace to see if they would burn because I was running out of firewood and kindling. They make a lot of smoke but burn hot and leave few ashes. Cork acts like a wood burning stove pellet in my opinion.
