Pawlonia

I always wanted a pawlonia since I heard it was very difficult to get them to flower in this country, even in the south of England. Well, red rag to a bull that was !  It's a big tree, and not everyone has room for one,  so I managed to get one reduced from £40 ish down to £10 at a local garden centre; had to have it delivered as it wouldn;t fit in the car. It flowered for the first time last year, andhasmany more flowers this year. Truly stunning, and such a pretty colour.
