RE: Identify Jacaranda species

Hi Geo, It's a Paulownia tomentosa, also known as the Empress Tree. Beautiful and fast grower but it's hard to get the seeds... usually fre fruits are out of reach unless you get a heavily pruned tree and all of them fly as soon as fruit opens... they are very small to gather on the ground.

I found a tip that say surface sowing because they require light to sprout. The method worked like a charm.

Regards. Paul.
