These trees are very beautiful and very fast growing!!
The Royal Empress tree is the fastest growing shade tree in the world, reaching as high as 18 feet tall in the first year. “It offers major benefits to the environment… it’s the modern day aspirin for Mother Nature,” says Travis Zboch, one of the managers at Fast Growing Trees Nursery.
It has been discovered that Empress Trees improve efficiencies in hardwood harvesting and with intercropping and enrich soil composition. They are not only fast growing shade trees, but they also act as giant filters. With their giant leaves and rapid growth rate, they serve to extract pollutants and cleanse the air at an unheard of rate, taking in carbon dioxide and releasing high levels of pure oxygen back into the atmosphere. Because of this, they can do this ten times faster than most other trees.
By absorbing animal waste and many toxins from the ground, Empress Trees can clean the surrounding soil as well. This benefits not only surrounding plants, but grazing animals that feed on these plants as well.
You also get the bonus of large, beautiful lavender blooms in spring, sweetly scented. The tree will grow in just about any kind of soil and is incredibly resistant to pests and diseases. It can be found from Canada to Mexico, and is rated for ZONES 5-11. Grows at the rate of 10-15 ft / year. Full grown mature tree can be as tall as one hundred feet.
Every spring the tree bursts forth with huge purple flowers with a nice fragrance. The royal empress tree has large leaves which make it great for shade and several of them could shade a house enough to cut fuel bills. The leaves drop off each year and add nitrogen to the soil.
