The secondary xylem of the conifers is commonly called softwood. This term can at times be misleading, however, as many coniferous woods are physically quite hard while some angiosperm hardwoods are, in fact, quite soft (e.g. balsa). Softwoods are simpler and more homogeneous in structure than hardwoods.
