    My Sister calls it a Toby Tree. It grows extremely fast several feet a year and has extremely large leaves. They're bringing me one today to plant in my yard. We live in Pennsylvania.

    It's the first 3 pictures in the pDF file.

    My sister tells me that this tree has long bean pods and not like the Pods I've seen for the Paulownia - Empress.
