Re: paulowina tormentosa (Empress Tree)

I have stuck two tip cuttings into hormone and soil. They both look alright
so far. I would like it if you could put me in touch with her or just ask
her how well this will work. I have wanted one of these for several years
now. They have one at an herb farm that I visit once or twice a year but
have never offered them for sale,  as I understand it they cut it to the
ground every year because then it becomes more of a bush and the leaves
become huge. I'd like it either way. Thanks for your help.
