The heartwood color ranges from pale to golden yellow, darkening only slightly with age. Sapwood is a pale yellow/white. Yellowheart is normally easy to work with both hand and machine tools, though it can be more difficult if interlocked or figured grain is present. It also has a moderate blunting effect on cutters. Glues and finishes well.
