Driving through Twickenham yesterday and near the Green there was a
Paulownia in perfect full flower, my wife exclaimed " that can't be a
Jacaranda", but it did look that good.
Most gardeners seem to coppice them annually so they get the huge leaves but
maybe it's better to let them grow if you have the room. It's obviously
taken what the last few winters have thrown at it and survived well.
