The pith is harder because a mahogany tree grows very slowly.
definately a hardwood, harder than maple, elm, birch and many other "hardwoods" just below oak and ebony on the density chart..much harder than honduran mahogony which is way down the chart.
the hardwoods are woods that don't keep their trees in the winter. some of these are: beech, mahogany, maple these are generally harder than evergreens...the only exception to this is Balsa. this is the softest wood in the world.

The 'charge' in the pith ball is actually caused by too many or too little electrons. When you touch the ball, these billions of electrons would rather move to your nice, moist skin, than stay in the dry pith ball, because your skin is a better conductor than pith is.

Pith is weaker than the rest of a tree because it comes from the young flexible sapling of an adolescent tree. If the Pith is not removed a builder would have to assume that all the lumber was as weak as the pith, and they would end up using more lumber than necessary to carry the same load.
I believe maple would be more durable than mahogany.
The stem of a dicot plant has more pith cells than any other cell type. Pith cells are large, thin-walled cells located in the center of the stem that provide support and store nutrients.
Mahogany gliders have a conservation listing of "critical". There are believed to be fewer than 1500 adults remaining.

It's called the core. It goes Crust,Inner crust, outer core, Core xx
If referring to "genuine mahogany" which is native to Latin America and the Caribbean, no. However there are several other species of trees in the Mahogany family that grow throughout Asia whose timber is used commercially as mahogany would. These are of the genus TOONA. Toona is one kind of mahogany, other than American mahogany. Toona grows natively in Vietnam (as well as many other Asian countries.) So, mahogany of the Toona genus does grow in Vietnam, however mahogany of the American genus does not.
