Some popular choices for exotic hardwood flooring include ipe, bubinga and purpleheart. Bubinga is an African hardwood that is most commonly used for furniture, flooring and cabinetry. Bubinga is distinguishable by the multiple shades of red and purple overtones that can be seen in the tree's bands. One of the features of this exotic hardwood is that the color stays the same--it won't darken over time.
Purpleheart is accurately named as it has a very unusual purple coloring. It grows in the rainforest, reaching heights of up to 150 feet or more. This giant tree is very stable and extremely strong, making it a good choice for hardwood floors.
