Re: Guess this tree . . .


Hey Dana -

Yes, it is indeed Paulownia.  These flower buds haning on all winter
really make this tree stand out during this time, don't they.  Here at
my office (where I am known as the resident 'botanist'), several
non-gardeners have asked me about a tree they see not far away from
our building, noticing for the first time that this tree is different.

Here is the page for this tree on the gimcw web site:
