Description

The listing, ROYAL EMPRESS TREE has ended.

It’s an entertaining tree year-round. In the winter its branches are covered with furry, pea sized buds, just waiting to burst into huge flowers. At the first sign of spring, the tree explodes with purple blooms. Cars slow down to look at it. The fragrance is incredible… it’s like a cross between gardenia and jasmine.

When summer comes, the tree forms a dense canopy that can drastically cut your power bills. The leaves are huge, measuring about a foot wide. They’re almost tropical looking. When they drop in the fall, it’s an easy clean up... not like my Oaks that scatter tens of thousands of tiny leaves.

Plus, bigger leaves mean fewer branches, so you get more sunlight and natural heat coming through in the winter when you need it most.

Best of all, this is a flowering tree you don’t have to baby. It grows almost everywhere, from Mexico to Canada, preferring zones 5-11. It has no significant insect or disease problems… tolerates drought…and grows in almost any kind of soil, even toxic ones. It's a hardwood tree that lives to an old age.

You can also feel good that you’re planting one of the most environmentally beneficial trees in the world. Your Empress Tree will have large leaves that act as giant air filters, pulling pollution out of the air at a remarkable rate… turning it into wood, then releasing high amounts of beneficial oxygen.
WINNER WILL GET 5 SEEDS AND IF THE BIDS GO OVER 500 I WILL DOUBLE THIS. VERY EASY TO GROW. WINNER MUST PROVIDE SHIPPING INFO WITHIN 48 HOURS OF AUCTION OR YOU WILL FORFEIT YOUR BIDS AND I WILL GO TO NEXT IN LINE. I SHIP IMMMEDIATELY VIA USPS AND AFTER THEY LEAVE MY MAIL I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR LOST MAIL. IF YOU DO NOT AGREE PLEASE DO NOT BID. THANK YOU AND GOOD LUCK!

they are remarkable..if you keep the ground farely moist as seedlings until they are about 16-18 inches and then plant them in the ground..fertilize them (i use miracle grow rose food) 2 times a yr in spring and fall..mine grew over 4 foot the first spring thru fall..this is my second spring with it and it has grown 2 inches since our last frost here in oklahoma and it's covered in giant leaves..it's a show stopper..people stop and just look at it and ask where i got it..

these grow very very quick..you can actually measure them weekly and even daily..very impressive ..please check them out on the internet...remarkable history and beautiful wood is produced from these.they say even after the wood is harvested for it's remarkable white in color, it will regrow..that is why it is so well liked by tree producers. People actually sell this wood on ebay and it is very expensive..thank you all and good luck to you all..

Can this be grown inside the home?
Or does it get too big?
Absolutely beautiful!!!

they grow very quickly..I've never researched on if they can be pruned to stay inside a home..they are to reach full height in 3 yrs of about 30 - 40 foot with at least a 35 foot expansion...might be something to check into..thanks for asking such an interesting question
