7. PAULO WNIA. Paulownia Imperialis. KIRI. A new and splen- 

 did tree from Japan; of extraordinary rapid growth, and leaves of enor- 

 mous size ; the flowers of a fine blue color, in large clusters or panicles ; 

 each individual like the Gloxinia cendes ; of a sweet and fragrant odor. 

 At the Garden of Plants, in Paris, the tree blossomed for the first time 

 early in May, 1842 ; the parent tree of all in France. In Normandy, 

 the tree, while young, is tender, afterwards hardy. Such is my account, 

 from the distant but most authentic resources. The trees first sent me 

 from France, early in 1842, being lost in the wreck of the ship Louis 

 Philippe, new specimens were again sent early in 1843.
