Depending on the timber use, Paulownia can be cut back after anything from one year (for biomass growth) to 20 years (for large timber board).
Common practice is to harvest the Paulownia timber from the age of 5-8 for high quality wood. At this age, Paulownia trees can grow to the size equivalent of a 25 year old Teak tree.
For optimum timber production efficiency, under good conditions, harvest would be done at year 10.
Order of the Paulownia Flowers happened in 1888.

If you cut back the flowering stems of lupins after the flowers have faded you will get a secondary flowering. Any other cutting back should be to the ground in Spring when growth restarts.
Processed Paulownia timber currently sells for the price of approximately 500$- 1000$US per cubic metre
I live just north of Houston Texas and the oleanders here have been cut back. I have seen them cut them back to about 8 inches above the ground and also cut back to about 2 feet in height.
Paulownia seedlings are valued at anything from $2 to $3. Once the tree is a year or two old, it would be valued as a stick, and from the years 5-10 possibly as material for the creation processed timber. The value depends on the age, quality, ultimate use and type of Paulownia tree.
Yes as long as you have not cut below the bud.
round up and hedge trimmers, cut them back then round up or white vinegar them
By all means, mow them! Iit will not hurt them as the new 'berry plants' come from root runners under the ground or shoots as some people call them.
I cut mine down to ground level, or as close to the ground as I can get. They grow back as much as 10 feet tall. I usually trim them back once after flowering to about 4 feet, then all the way back in Feb. March, depending on your seasons. Ralph Williams Houston, TX area.
Yes. It is. Along with other plants, as well.
Cut the tree stump all the way, Then dig in the ground and remove the seed( s )
