It’s not a tree really but banana plants (especially the common type found in Thailand, which is not the common Cavendish westerners know) can grow ridiculously quick, particularly if the entire “trunk” is cut off - within hours the middle most growing stems will have extended up above the cut point a significant amount. Coincidentally they’re a PITA to get rid of too - id argue worse than clumping bamboo.
