End grain means that the end of the wood fibers are exposed, whereas edge grain means that the grain is running along the outside. The major difference is that end grain is resistant to cuts and scarring and is even self-healing over time, as the density of the fibers will push back into place. This is why there are even some softwoods that are used for making butcher blocks, as the benefit of end grain surpasses the benefits of using a hardwood with edge grain.
Mimosa (Albizia julibrissin) is native to Asia and is widely planted as an ornamental tree. The color can vary from a light brown to a deeper golden, even a store reddish brown.
