Ok, that comment of mine comes across as a little bitchy, didn't mean that.

If you can find it, it's not easy to find, holly is white, aspen and ash are nearly white, very light tan color and basswood is very white and easier to find than holly.

White pine starts off as white, turns orange as it ages, I tend to like that color and it matches WRC well as a contrast for me at least, but true eastern white pine too is getting harder to find.
