What Stirlo said.
Along with figured Tas. Blackwood, Blackheart Sassafras and Leatherwood.

Mountain ti tree, King billy, celery top, myrtle, huon, horizontal, regnans - not in that order necessarily, and certainly not limited to them.

all of them, especially the more obscure ones..but Huon pine is just a beautiful timber to work and myrtle has great properties and texture..

if your talking flooring, Tasmanian Oak is by far the best, Tas Blackwood is also a nice timber
