Paulownia tomentosa/ Foxglove tree

A rarely seen, tropical looking tree with large, felted leaves and foxglove-shaped lilac flowers. This large tree grows  fast, up to 2.5m a year when young, and is often used to create shade in gardens. The leaves can grow up to 25cm across, but if the tree is kept small by severely pruning it each year, the leaves can grow even larger. The tubular flowers are held in an upright flowerspike resembling a foxglove shape in spring, but will not be produced if cut back the previous year. Plant in a slightly sheltered position to prevent spring flowers from being affected by hard frosts. 

Irish-grown plants, 175-200cm tall in a 5 litre pot.

Generally available in our Monkstown shop.
