The lumber industries and woodworkers use the term "Softwood", this wood is from Conifer Trees, (needle bearing trees) such as pine, Fir, Douglas Fir, Spruce, etc.

Softwood is a common term given to pine trees and other conifers. However, some pines do not have soft wood. The wood of the longleaf pine tree is harder than that of most hardwood trees. The wood of a particular type of slash pine that grows a taproot instead of fibrous root is so hard that it must be drilled in order to insert nails. And white pine is hard enough to be machined. The wood of other cone bearing trees is generally soft and deserves the term of softwood.
