isawlogs · December 25, 2006, 05:01:44 PM

Its a Fastgrowing tree , Dont have them here . ;) :P :P

TexasTimbers · December 25, 2006, 08:58:55 PM

Is it a tree at all? I think it might be a serious weed or sumptin . . . . .

Fla._Deadheader · December 25, 2006, 09:10:51 PM

YEP, definitely a tree. Got a scientific name and all, AND, it IS considered a weed. ;D :D :D

WDH · December 25, 2006, 09:35:37 PM

Does it range as far north as the Southern US?

Donna · December 25, 2006, 09:39:04 PM

It sure looks like a young Paulownia tree.

LeeB · December 26, 2006, 01:42:14 AM

papaya ???

TexasTimbers · December 26, 2006, 07:26:44 AM

That's a good guess Lee but I have seen a papaya tree and my memory says the leaves aren't that big.

If Lee is not right does it bloom flowers or produce fruit? Mybe its a mango tree I have never seen one of those.

Fla._Deadheader · December 26, 2006, 07:31:13 AM

I really think it's a Tropical. No fruit.

YEP, it's Tropical, Central and South America. CAN grow to 80 ' and a 30" trunk in 6 years.

If left to grow, it can attain 6' dia. ;D ;D

Definitely not Paulownia.

crtreedude · December 26, 2006, 10:12:31 AM

Hard to tell from the photo, but I would guess Balsa.

TexasTimbers · December 26, 2006, 10:37:37 AM

Oh that's no fair you live there.

I had Balsa on the tips of my fingers so I googled an image of it and it didn't look like it to me and so I didn't offer it. Plus Harold said a "weed" tree so I ruled it out for that too.
