Description
Paulownia Shan Tong
Format
Bare-root stump

Paulownia Shan Tong – Stump XL is a bare-root Stump XL, with high lignified reserve and strong calibre. It is an advanced hybrid P. Fortunei × P. Tomentosa.

Format and Supply

Supplied bare-root, with careful moisture handling until planting. The purpose of the format is to protect the roots during transport and support orderly planting, with clear, identifiable and manageable plant material from delivery.

Variety and Application

Shan Tong is a historic industrial hybrid: well-known line for Paulownia timber production, with fast growth, broad adaptation and long-established technical use. It can be used in timber plantations, biomass and comparative trials; for new high-performance projects, consider newer registered varieties such as PROFI®, Turbo Pro® or ZE Pro®.For new high-performance projects, compare this line with registered, more selected varieties such as Turbo Pro®, PROFI®, ZE Pro® or Proxy2®.

Main Use

light timber, biomass, comparative trials and technical plantations where a known industrial reference is useful. Format choice depends on project size, transport distance, planting season and the development level required on delivery.

Climate and Site

Historic industrial variety for temperate and moderately continental climates. It can be grown in Central and Southern Europe, although new maximum-performance projects should compare it with newer registered hybrids such as PROFI®, Turbo Pro® or ZE Pro®.

Flowering and Ornamental Value

Classic Paulownia flowering in violet tones, useful for pollinators. Its main value remains timber and technical cultivation.

Expected Result

With prepared soil, support irrigation and correct early management, it allows the establishment of a vigorous, well-rooted Paulownia aligned with the real project objective.

Site and Position

Preferably full sun, with deep, aerated and drained soil. In professional plantations, prioritise correct spacing, weed control, support irrigation and stem training from the first cycle.

Melliferous Value

Classic Paulownia flowering in violet tones, useful for pollinators. Its main value remains timber and technical cultivation. It can complement beekeeping and biodiversity within a crop whose priority remains productive.

Irrigation

Before planting, keep roots moist and protected. After planting, apply settling irrigation and maintain regular moisture until regrowth is confirmed.
