World Paulownia Institute, LLC

I ordered (12) 1-gallon trees from this nursery in Georgia at the cost of $49.95 each ($599.40). They shipped me tree clones laying on top of a perlite mix. Then, they told me they would grow into a tree in 4-6 weeks. They sell these tree clones for $4.95 each on their site. I purchased 100 tree clones over a year ago and was unable to take care of them after my surgery. That is why I purchase the more expensive 1-gallon trees this time to give me a head start. They sent me $4.95 clones and charged me $49.95. They have insisted I ship the clones back and quoted the shipping at $150. I already paid $599.40 out of pocket. Julie was rude and condescending and absolutely no help at all. AVOID THIS COMPANY

I received great quality plants from this company. The paulownia elongata die to the ground each year so far in our cold zone 5 climate, but come back larger each year.
