This statement removed:

Paulownia has the highest strength-to-weight ratio of any tree in the world with a tested strength of 288 kg/m3, which is 129 kg/m3 greater than balsa. This makes Paulownia a highly sought-after marine timber.

The figures quoted are densities, not strengths, and therefore irrelevant to the claim, which needs verification before it can be included - MPF 10:26, 16 Apr 2005 (UTC)
