If you want a REALLY fast growing tree... - Page 2 - YorkieTalk.com Forums

Are these the trees that have the flowers that grow in clusters? The house my mom grew up in had tons of these and when her step-father passed away and they sold the house, they cut them all down.

They were at least 50 feet tall.

This could be a good gift idea.. thanks for posting!

When are you supposed to plant trees anyway?

Hey Kyle, I think it is best to plant them in the Spring

Thanks for the info! I think I've seen this advertisement before and briefly thought about getting one (or two) but then forgot about it. Now that we are in a new house (out in the country), we could really use some fast growing trees. I didn't read all of the info on it yet. Do you know if they are good for my zone (we're in Texas)?? Anyone in Texas have them and can comment?

Yes, the website says zones 5 to 11 and that includes Texas...

We are in Maryland, so I can't say anything about how they are going to do in Texas. Maybe you have to water them...

Yep, I just saw that about which zones it's good for and Texas is definitely in there. The fact that the info says it's "adaptable" for soil types and the drought tolerance is "good" makes it sound pretty good for our land. I will definitely look at getting a couple of these in the Spring.
