Softwoods - Pine, Locust and Aspen Hardwoods - Oak, Maple, Hickory Softwood trees are often also successional trees in the temperate zone; trees that are short-lived and first appear in landscape succession as it moves to climax growth. Hardwood trees are long-lived and are typically associated with the climax growth of temperate zones. Climax growth is the natural and final state of vegetative cover for any zone. For instance the Midwest is a temperately zoned area; left to nature all the cleared farmland would return (succeed) to hardwood forests. Warmer, arid and colder zones have a different climax growth.

∙ 15y agoA good rule of thumb for softwood/hardwood difference is that hard woods come from trees which bear seeds with a covering, such as oak trees, which produce acorns... An example of a softwood would be pine, which produse pinecones, an arrangement of seeds with no real covering.

You have two types of trees, softwood and hardwood trees, softwood are needle-leaved trees, all hardwoods are broadleaved trees,all trees are perennials. All woods have cells, the size and structure determines whether its soft or hardwood, softwoods have "tracheid" cells which gives them support and allows the sap to run. Hardwoods have the same cells but much less, they also have vessels & pores to allow sap to run, and they also have fibers that give them support, I hope this answers your question.
