Western red cedar
Western red cedar is one of the more popular types of wood used to build wood fences in North America and elsewhere.
The scientific name for western red cedar is thuja plicata, and it's an evergreen tree that is native to the Pacific Northwest of the United States and Canada, but it has been introduced to Europe, New Zealand, and other areas with temperate climates. This tree prefers.
One of the reasons why western red cedar is more expensive than other kinds of wood used for wood fences and other construction applications is that it is slower growing than other kinds of wood like spruce or fir.
