Big Pack - Paulownia elongata Tree Seeds (5,000+), aka Empress Tree - Very Large Leaves, Shade Tolerant - Non-GMO Seeds by MySeeds.Co

It took awhile to sprout.However we now have tons of plants to plant!

Jeez, I am really not having much luck with this seller. Trees would have been planted in a zone 6 area so it would have been a little risky if they would have overwintered well or not. But I could not get one single sprout. Sowed into clean stonewool plugs. Kept moist but not drowned. Sad. Going to try again because of how many seeds came in the bag, but I'm not hopeful.

I'd give this 5 stars except it has surprisingly low germination rate for this type of tree. I do have some seedlings for transplant so it not bad for the price.

I've gotten many of these to sprout without any need for stratification.The two I have planted out are growing very well.Be careful not to over fertilize in the first yearI got eager and stunted one by accidentally burning it with too much Nitrogen, woops ;)They have HUGE leaves, their trunks get stocky and strong very quickly!I'm in Zone 9a in the Sonoran Desert just outside of Phoenix and with proper/adequate water these things LOVE to grow!They are outpacing my moringa's which pushed 13' in their first 3-4 months of life!UPDATE: 3/24/2020:These trees are incredible. Apparently they also have antimicrobial and antioxidation properties! Search Google scholar for more info!I accidentally weed wacked one and it grew back it's 15' in 3rd year. Wood is super dense and solid after 2nd year, pruned to Central leader and growth since spring shoots this year is insane! I expect the main tree to reach 30 feet or more this year ... Neglected fertilizer last year and had ridiculous hot summer (120+ several times) survived and is thriving!

Germination rate very low.Had one germ, grew to around a foot high in the first year, then died.

Tried three times to germinate these with a zero success rate. Followed the directions on the pack exactly and tried a few other methods. I think it's a bad batch?

This seeds are a waist of money they are not good. No germination at all. I have planted many and none have sprouted or germinate how ever you call it.

so far so good i got my seeds very fast , i used just a few seeds lets said 80 percent sprout in about 10 days i used 8 oz of tap water plus hidrogen peroxide i use the cap of the bottle and add the hydrogen peroxide to the water then i wet a piece of kitchen paper and place it with the seeds in a sealed plastic bag .i placed the bag in a window facing west .10 days later bomm nice paulownia small trees.now today i took them out of the bag will see
