Paulownia is one of the many plant species that can grow into a fully grown tree in the next 5 to 8 years after the plantation. Hence, they are known as the fast-growing species. They are grown majorly in the Japanese soil, and hence you can find the images of the tree etched onto their coins, and also in the coat of arms.

Paulownia Wood
This species is in existence for more than hundreds of centuries and is noted in the books of Chinese medicines for more than 3000 AD. Every part of this tree is of great benefit including its drying flesh. The craftsman prefers choosing this wood for its wonderful features such as smoothness, strength, low-moisture absorption mechanism, and also for its lack of defects.
Uses
The trees of Paulownia species are known as fast-growing species as they can reach their maturity within the next 5 to 8 years after they are planted. The planters need not wait for many years to utilise the timbers and trunks for various purposes. The useful timbers are the source of wood in many fields such as furniture and fixture manufactures, ship and boat and yacht manufacturers, house requirement manufacturers, water sports gear manufacturers, and so on.
The wood is very light weighted and yet can withstand powerful loads without breaking and can stand for many decades without even flinching.
As a Renewable Source of Energy
The trees can grow up to a height of 3 to 5 metres more than their growth in the previous year in all species including the Paulownia Elongata. Every time the tree grows back when it is subjected to felling. The average life span of these species is 70 to 100 years and the years of growth will not hinder its regeneration rate. The logging companies and enterprises log the trees more than 5 to 9 times, as the tree can regenerate very fast when compared to all the other plant species.
The best part of growing paulownia trees is that they can be easily cultivated with other crops. If you aim to just grow these trees, then the best choice is to grow them with a gap of 3m between each row and column. The first three years do not require any chopping down or trimming of the trees. When it is the fourth year, you should follow the trimming routine to make sure that their growth does not interfere with the growth of the other trees.
The tree is known as the Phoenix Tree as it can be sawed anytime as per the requirement. The quick regeneration mechanism makes it possible to grow back the damaged part within no time.
