The origins of this tree can be put down to seeds transported by birds from plantations of quick-growing trees used for logging, which was an industry that started up towards the end of the 19th century in Montseny. Alternatively, the seeds may have been transported form the gardens of the first residential towers, where wealthy people from Barcelona introduced exotic species that were in fashion at the time.
