fastest growing tree?

Answer 1

The Royal Paulownia, also called Royal Empress Tree (Paulownia tomentosa) is purportedly one of the fastest growing trees in the world: 10 feet in one season and 25 feet in three years! There is a species of tropical bamboo that allegedly grew 100 feet in a three months but the author is skeptical and believes 50 feet more likely. It is a grass, poaceae and gramineae. But it is also a woody plant. From the botanists on Waynes Word.

Answer 2

Some bamboo species been reported to grow up to 3 to 4 feet in one day. Large bamboo grows in a tree-like fashion and although a monocot, they fit the definition of a tree.
