    Need some info

    I am looking for the name of a Japanese tree. Easy enough? Well, it grows FAST, FAST..
    It has big leaves and is one of the hardest woods grown on a tree.
    If anyone could please tell me the name of the tree, I would be a very happy person...
    Thank you everyone.

    Japanese, big leaves, very fast growing = Paulownia. But, it is one of the softest woods, not one of the hardest.

    Perhaps one of our Japanese members will be able to help.

    And, of course, welcome to SMC.

    Not an expert, but, usually FAST growing means Soft wood.
