This paper investigates the within- and between-tree variability of hardness and basic density in two stands of 11-year-old and 20-year-old maritime pine trees grown in the south-west of France. A slight increase was found in the inner core hardness of the 11-year-old trees (+13.9 %) and in basic density of the 20-year-old pines (6.5 %) with decreasing tree height. Between the 1st and 13th annual rings of the 20-year-old trees, hardness increased by +49.8 % and basic density by +18.7 % on average. These variations were strongly tree-dependent. A significant correlation was found between hardness and basic density, even when each sampling position was considered independently.
