Paulownia 'Ze Pro'

Paulownia catalpifolia is a rapidly growing deciduous tree that reaches heights of approximately 15 meters. It features elongated, heart-shaped green foliage. In autumn, the tree produces flower buds that are covered in soft golden brown fuzz, which persist through the winter. These buds bloom in the spring, just prior to the emergence of the leaves, forming large clusters of pale mauve, tubular flowers that emit a pleasant fragrance. Following the flowering period, the blooms give way to brown, woody seed capsules.
