TGG supply Paulownia trees and the knowledge needed to grow them.
Our clients include plantation promoters, investors and growers worldwide. We work closely with plantation managers to ensure they plant the correct stock and have the support needed to see the trees thrive. We also supply retail packs in Australia for ornamental or farm.
Paulownia (pronounced Paw-lo-ne-a) is a medium height, large-leafed, fast growing deciduous tree from East Asia. Cultivated prim
arily for its fine, light and valuable timber, Paulownia can also be used for biomass, carbon sequestration, pruned to supply nutritious fodder to livestock during dry times and is highly ornamental with masses of sweetly scented trumpet shaped flowers in spring. Paulownia trees are also known as Empress Trees, Foxglove Trees, Phoenix Trees, Princess Trees, Royal Paulownia, Chinese Parasol Trees, Dragon Trees, wu tong or pao tong 泡桐 (Chinese), odongnamu 오동나무 (Korean) and kiri 桐 (Japanese).
TGG has collected and developed a huge resource of Paulownia genetics and can supply cool to tropical regions, representing a temperature range from -20ºC to 47ºC. Based in Australia, we are experienced plant exporters and have supplied to many nations and almost every continent.

Travel Notes From ChinaIn July 2004 TGG principals James and Noriko Lawrence visited China and spent a few days in Henan Province as guests of the Paulownia Research and Development Centre of China. While this article may seem outdated, it is well worth revisiting as it is still relevant and will be of particular interest to those new to Paulownia.
Discusses the intensive management used in Paulownia cultivation in China and makes some comparison between the techniques used traditionally by the Chinese and those developed by TGG in Australia. Considerable genetic improvement has been made by the Chinese (and obtained and built upon by TGG) but the extension of the new genetics into plantations in China has been held back by traditional methods while TGG is able to quickly supply large quantities.
