Paulownia Fortunei
Also known as: The Princess Tree, Phoenix Tree, Dragon Tree, Fortunes Empress Tree, originally Pavlovnia.

This showy ornamental is present in much of China, south to northern Laos and Vietnam and has been long cultivated elsewhere in eastern Asia, notably in Japan and Korea. Becoming more popular in North America.

They are deciduous trees 12–15 m (39–49 ft) tall, with massive, heart shaped leaves 15–40 cm across, arranged in opposite pairs on the stem. They make good fodder for farm animals containing 18-20% protein and with high amounts of nitrogen. They also make a nice tea for us humans. The flowers are produced in early spring on panicles 10–30 cm long, with a tubular purple corolla resembling a foxglove flower. They are very rich in nectar so most of the organic honey in China comes from the Paulownia tree. They are lightly scented lavender, last for about 6-8 weeks and make a tasty addition to your salad. The fruit is a dry capsule, containing numerous minute seeds.

The wood itself is light but strong and is widely used for boat building, surfboards, and various stringed musical instruments.

Used in agroforestry systems because it is extremely fast growing up to 20 feet in one year when young. Some species of plantation Paulownia can be harvested for saw timber in as little as five years. Once the trees are harvested, they regenerate from their existing root systems, earning them the name of the "Phoenix tree". It is deep rooting so it is good for erosion control. It is also late leafing and its canopy is quite sparse so that any crops below will get both enough light to grow and to be sheltered.
Each acre of trees will scrub 13 tons of harmful CO2 gases and dust from the air each year. What more could you ask for!

Seeds are easily killed off by soil fungi and not enough sun, so it is recommended to cook the soil at high temperatures prior to surface sown planting and to provide adequate sunlight to avoid problems. They also do not like high water tables because the trees themselves are also susceptible to rot. Hardy to USDA zone 8b and above.

This offer is for (approximately) 200+ small seeds.

Spectacular Albeit Unknown History of Race Relations
Format: Hardcover
This is a great piece of historiography about something few know about at all --- slavery in New York City in the 18th century. How about a slave "rebellion" in New York City, how about more people burned at the stake than in the Salem witchcraft trials, how about dark byways and highways of old New York, barely transformed from its days as New Amsterdam, dark plots in dank places, shrill frightened tyrants overreacting with bloody retribution, burned ruins of an early African American village in Central Park? One cannot make up this stuff, it is too real so it must be history at its best. And written by one of our premier authors of history, a woman who makes our history live in The New Yorker to the acclaim of many, and yet whose best book, this one, is still too little known. If you appreciate Harry Truman's remark that the only new thing under the Sun is the history you haven't read, then this is one to curl up with and marvel at; a great way to spend a rainy day or a dark night.

Good, but not great.
Format: Paperback
Kudos to Lepore for delving into an important, little known subject, which she does better than most historians. At times, however, I think she felt the need to put every little piece of information she got into the book. It was way too long. Some good research, but she has done better. Still, worth checking out. I like to think I know American history, but I know nothing about this awful chapter.

DAMN, this is a great book!
Format: Hardcover
All history books should be this detailed, this readable, this humane. Lepore knows how to write about a horrible, nearly forgotten episode in NYC history. Unlike many historians, she steps away from overt politics or raw emotion. She knows that this subject is too serious to be shouted. It is the rare history book that is packed with facts as well as knowledge. I felt like Lepore was taking my hand and leading me through the smelly streets of lower Manhattan in 1741, like I could almost see the faces of...what were they, anyway? The victims of a horrible hoax? The demented planners of a plot to burn the city? Or something in between, where thieves can also be the keepers of ancient rites from a distant homeland, where the world is turned upside down? I could go on and on, but just buy the book!

New York Burning
Format: Paperback
. This is an important book that explores in depth what is usually only found in textbooks as a one-sentence summation: "In 1741 there was a slave uprising in New York City." Scholars will probably be happier starting with the Appendix and bibliography and then reading the book. The text is disorganized and uneven, and although this is non-fiction, the characters could have been more finely drawn. Peter Zenger's trail keeps popping up in unexpected places, often disconnected from the action the author is working on. Some sections are heavy on primary documents and period writings, others are more poetic. Yes, I do understand the parallels with the Salem Witch Trials. The Salem Witch Trials get more press today because of Arthur Miller's "Crucible." Color and religion of the participants aside, both events are stories of group think and mass hysteria, fear and anger. There is plenty of room here for a first-class film or play to be written. Read this book, learn from it. Expect to complain about it. Kim Burdick Stanton, DE

What You Didn't Know
Format: Paperback
Did you know that if you were a Catholic Priest on the streets of New York in 1747 that you'd be arrested and hung! Great book if you're interested in the times during which our founding Fathers were growing up. It'll give you a different concept on how slavery was different in NYC as opposed to in the South, and how many of the streets in NYC got there names from English magistrates. If you like history, especially of NYC, you'll love this book.
