paulownia- who wants some?

,

If anyone else is interested, I would like to buy some trees from dragontrees.com. It works out to be about $11/tree after shipping and CA tax if I order 12. Even though I have a big backyard, I don’t think I can fit in 12. They’re supposed to be 12-18 ft in the first year.

I’d like to make myself a chambered step-up shortboard. My son just got a paulownia birdhouse from the crafts store that’s so light and strong, I want to build a board from it.

I’m in Orange County. Any takers?
