American hornbeam (Carpinus caroliniana), also known as musclewood (or ironwood or blue beech) has smooth, grey, muscle-textured trunk and bark and the Myaamia word myaawaamiši refers to this aspect of this species. Eastern Hophornbeam (Ostrya virginiana) is also known as ironwood, but is not known for its muscle-textured stems, having brownish, shreddy trunk bark. |
