Technically, mahogany is a hardwood. Not because of its density, but because of the type of seed it produces. Hardwood trees produce seeds with some type of shell, like a walnut, apple, or oak (acorn). Softwood seeds have no shell (and are often in cones), such as pine, fir, or cedar. Generally but not always, hardwood trees are deciduous (lose their leaves seasonally), while softwood trees are evergreen.
