Cumaru Rosa (Cherry Teak) has a beautiful grain and is extremely hard and durable even compared to most other Brazilian hardwoods. The cherry color offers a pronounced grain pattern with more consistent color than yellow or champagne Cumaru. This decking is becoming extremely popular in the US.  More Photos and information from our supplier

 
 
 


Tatajuba is yellowish gold turning a consistent deep russet brown over the first few months in sunlight. The color transformation is very dramatic. The consistent brown color continues to weather to silver tone but more slowly than Ipe or other species. As it weathers, the grain raises slightly, usually sufficient to prevent the deck from becoming slippery when wet.    More Photos and and information from our supplier.
