I have seen Paulownia do 6-8' in one year after it had established a root
system...but why would you want this darned thing It is flowery - true -
but the wood is weaker than balsa, it is very short lived, it makes a hell
of a mess, and it is an invasive exotic.

Hi Y'all,

Found a catalog ad for a Royal Paulownia tree for $4.99. Ad states it
can grow roof high in one year. (Does this seem legit?)

Is this tree in the same family as the Royal Poinciana.

I livein west central Florida.

Y'all have helped me before.

Thanks,

Bill
