Paulownia trees are known for having strong roots that can extend deep into the soil, which can make them a good choice for erosion control and stabilizing hillsides. The roots can also help the tree withstand high winds and drought conditions. Additionally, the deep root system allows the tree to access nutrients and water from lower soil layers, which can promote faster growth.

Paulownia wood is the lightest known timber other than balsa. It is also named the Aluminium of Timber. It is around two-thirds of the weight of the lightest commercial wood currently being grown in Europe. Paulownia wood is one-third of the weight of Oak and half the weight of Pine.

Paulownia wood is sometimes used in the construction of musical instruments due to its lightweight and resonant properties. Some examples of instruments made from Paulownia include electric guitars, ukuleles, and drums. The wood's lightweight nature can contribute to a more comfortable playing experience, while its resonance can help produce a clear and bright sound.

Paulownia is one of the fastest-growing trees in the world. The height of a one-year tree reaches 3-5 meters, a three-year tree is already 10-15 meters, and the maximum height is 15-28 meters, and the circumference of the tree is 20-30 cm.

Existing soil types Paulownia is a highly adaptive species and grows well on many types of soils. Most appropriate and recommended are light, well drained and sandy soils with or without slopes. Most recommended are deep well drained soils with pH from 5.0 to 8.9. Avoid clay, rocky and soaked soils. Soils that are consisted of over 25% of clay and porosity under 50% are not recommended for Paulownia. Paulownia does not tolerate salinity over 1%. Young Paulownia plants develop well, when the soil depth is at least 1.5-2 meters.

The wood's lightweight nature can make it easier to move and handle furniture made from it, and its fine grain can contribute to a smooth and even surface. Paulownia furniture can also be less expensive than furniture made from other types of wood, making it a popular choice for affordable and minimalist designs.
