I would try musafolia. It has grown up to 9-10 feet high in one season for me, even in zone 4 with lots of sun, water and fertlizer, and good soil.

I'm growing musafolia from seeds and their looking great. The omegas I'm growing from seeds are already about 3-4' tall. They are in one-gallon pots and I need to find a place to plant them.
