Do you grow Paulownia....

...and let it flower.

Very difficult to get a nice picture without a big step ladder, and I only have a small camera:dh:

Anyone else get some nice shots of theirs flowering at the moment:gnthb:

 

No.

 

:lollol:Well maybe you should !

 

BM, is that paulie under cover?
I have a 'stick' that I rescued from Duchy Nurseries last Autumn, it was severely pot bound in the sale section and cost me £4. It has some leaf buds on it but deff no flowers.

 

No it's massive, second storey roof height in the garden. Needs to be a few years in the ground before it buds for flowers. This is my second year from a tree planted in 2005. It's getting halved this year as it now has a nice frame to support a nice head of larger leaves.:gnthb: Get in the ground asap and it will grow like a trooper:D

 

That's great BM, it's looking lovely for such a young tree and that flower is heavenly. I planted mine straight away as I just had to release it from that pot, so maybe in a couple of years....

 

This is the overhead from early 2007 which you can see it's large then !



There is a nice bunch of flowers even higher up but the light just blacks them out on my camera.

 

Getting better, will post up chopped tree, will be as soon as the flowers have fallen.:gnthb:

 

Nice to see one flowering BM.
Not something we see a lot of.:gnthb:

 

Paulownia is on my Christmas list.
