Hardwood trees are commonly referred to as deciduous trees, as they typically shed their leaves annually. They belong to the class Angiosperms and are known for their dense and durable wood, which is often used in furniture, flooring, and construction. Common examples include oak, maple, and cherry. In contrast, softwood trees, such as pine and cedar, come from coniferous species that usually have needles and produce cones.
