Royal Empress Tree – Paulownia tomentosa Seeds | 350 Seeds | Fast Growing Flowering Tree | Fragrant Spring Blooms | Shade & Timber

Grow one of the fastest-growing flowering trees with Royal Empress (Paulownia tomentosa), also known as Princess Tree or Foxglove Tree. This striking ornamental tree is prized for its profuse clusters of pinkish-lavender, funnel-shaped flowers that bloom in early spring before the leaves emerge. The blossoms are lightly fragrant with a vanilla scent and create a dramatic display against the bare branches.

Large, heart-shaped leaves give this tree a bold, tropical appearance throughout the growing season. After flowering, woody seed capsules develop and mature in fall. Royal Empress is heat tolerant, adaptable, and capable of reaching 30–40 feet quickly under ideal conditions.

This species is valued as a shade tree, ornamental specimen, and even for lightweight timber. It has a long lifespan and is traditionally associated with good fortune.
