Paulownia
Bio tree produce high quality professional planting material (seedlings) for different cultivars Paulownia trees.
The planting material is made by company special author’s technology. The whole technological process takes place under controlled conditions.
In order to establish a successful plantation for intensive production of Paulownia timber, you should analyze the climate conditions at the selected area. I addition there are several key factors that should be taken in to attention.
We offer to our clients different varieties of hybrid cultivarsof Paulownia, with improved growth characteristics and suitable for different climate zones. Each of the hybrid cultivars suits different commercial applications – quality timber and biomass
The cultivars BELLISSIA®, PAULEMIA®, OXI ® и T 121 are selection of the Bio tree specialists. The two varieties are already established at the market and aclaimed by the clients.
BELLISSIA®, PAULEMIA®, OXI® and T121(NEW CULTIVAR) are protected with Certificates for new hybrid cultivars at the Patent authority of Republic of Bulgaria and are exclusive intellectual ownership of Bio tree ltd.
PAULEMIA®is a hybrid between specially selected Paulownia species and is created for production of superior trees for a short period of time /3-4 years/. PAULEMIA® is a result from the crossing of P. elongata, P. fortunei and P. kawakamii and resist to temperatures from – 30°C to + 50°C.
The cultivar is appropriate for timber production and biomass. PAULEMIA® can be used successfully in the urban environment because of its beautiful color and the ability to reduce significantly the CO2 and dust particles in the air. It also tolerates high polluted areas.
The genetic material used for the production of plants in our laboratories is privately owned. PAULEMIA® cultivar is a product of the PAULOWNIA AGRICOLTURA E AMBIENTE Company, which is the only seller of that plant.

BELLISSIA®
Paulownia elongata triple-hybrid BELLISSIA® is a high productive Bio tree selection cultivar for production of high grade timber with resistance to low temperatures reaching -22°С. The cultivar has strong apical dominance and reaches 5-6 m at height during the first real vegetation season and continues to add 3 to 4 cm in diameter annually when the plant is stable with developed root system. The apical dominance presume its cultivation in monostem plantations.
When the plantation place is selected correctly and the technology for growing is respected Paulownia BELLISSIA® produce up to 1m3 high quality timber on 8-9 year after planting. The reccomended planting scheme is 4m minimal distance between plants with mximum density of 620 trees per Ha.
Paulownia elongata hybrid OXI®is a high productive Bio tree selection cultivar for production of biomass. The cultivar is selected to be resistant to low temperatures up to -20°C and has natural tendency to develop many stems, which increase significantly the yields per hectare.
The optimal yield of biomass is reached when using two or three years rotation cycles. The yields vary between 60 to 80 tons of biomass per hectare per year. These calculations refer to plantations with well selected areas of planting and respected technology for growing with density of 3000-3500 plants per hectare.
Properly plant and grown plantation is a guarantee of achieving the planned results. How to properly establish a plantation for biomass.
oxi®
SHANDONG®
SHANDONG is a Paulownia tomentosa hybrid. SHANDONG is resistant in wide temperature range from -25°С and represent a acceptible (compromise) decision for development of plantations for timber production and afforestation in areas with severe climate conditions. The variety doen not posess the unique characteristics of the P. elongata hybrids. It requires strong efforts to form straight stem when the target is high quality timber. The Shandong variety timber acumulation rate is much lower than BELLISSIA®, PAULEMIA® and OXI®.
