   There is no transparent penetrating wood stain I know of which will give you an even colour across two dissimilar woods. You will need to use a solid stain, which is very much like paint but penetrates more. It is a common product to use on decks, however it does wear off and will need to be re-applied periodically.

   Some products to not adhere well to PT wood. Check with the manufacturer of the one you would like to apply before purchasing it. He may recommend a primer or recommend a different product altogether.

   I recently added some new cedar stairs to an old PT deck. Then we stained it all with Superdeck-redwood stain. The cedar was a different
   color but the owner loved it...
   I would try some on a sample ...it makes pressure treated wood beautiful
   and wears well.
