Paulownia elongata is a large rounded tree, with an open arrangement of thick, stiff branches. When left to its own devices, the Paulownia tomentosa will grow exceptionally large and produce a great display of eye - catching, sweetly scented pinkish-purple flowers that appear together with the leaves during April-May. Coppicing a tree annually will sacrifice the flowers, however it will produce 2-3m long stems with enormous leaves up to 60cm across (a coppiced tree does not produce flowers).
- We have one year old starter plants on offer (5cm tall, they naturally die back to a few buds in the first Winter from 30cm). Please note that these are leafless and they always die back to bottom buds during the first winter - healthy buds near base of the stem ready to bud out, It will grow 50-60cm this year.
