Wierd nut tree ID

[komatsuvarna]

I cut down a bigger tree(prob 18-20 inches) just like this one last year. The wood is extremely lite. This tree dont have leaves yet, but they put on big leaves. The leaves is about as big as both your hand put together. I cant find nobody that has a guess to what this is. Oh yeah, growing on dry land.

This one took me awhile.I believe it to be The Empress tree (Paulownia tomentosa) Not sure what it is doing in Tennessee, but they were widely planted.Native to China.

Yep, good call. Paulownia is not native but grows well in that zone.
