Myrtlewood only grows in two areas in the world.....
I know each place....
So where did ya come upon that myrtle?

 

[old_heli_logger]

Euchre Creek near Ophir, Oregon. My cousin and his dad built a sawmill here in Ophir on the southern Oregon coast back in the 70's and they supplied all the myrtlewood shops up and down the coast. He sold a bunch and kept some too

Here is local Myrtlewood used behind the catholic alter in a church in Myrtle Point Oregon....my Grandfather built this and all the accessories in the church around the alter from Myrtlewood....way before the 70's......

Noteworthy....the upper Coquille river system(lower south..north..east..lower middle forks) WERE all shadowed in shade from Myrtlewood trees...then nutria found the valley..burrowing into the silt river banks for tender roots of blackberry vines....the coming floods then wipe out the holes collasingthe river banks....the Myrtles along the river are almost all gone......where there used to be thousands..there are only hundreds...no more shade...
