Hi Susan,
Let's give a little time (a day or two) for the other board members to read
and respond to this question. Myself, I wouldn't know the difference if I
had them in front of me. Hopefully Meredith, Paul, Clay, Bob, or Steev
noticed whether or not we had some of both kinds. If we're still unsure
either way, we probably have no choice but to assume that we received what
we ordered and so we'll have to pay for it.
Rick

What I said is all I know. Perhaps the Mopani wood is that "standard"
bogwood and the KiKi wood is whatever was in the smaller bag. I do not
know.
