Catalpa Bignonioides

What is the plant

Originally the common trumpet tree, botanical Catalpa bignonioides, comes from the USA and is still found everywhere today. Due to its decorative appearance, it is also popular with us. Not only as a park or avenue tree, but also in private home gardens. While the original species is up to 18 meters high and therefore not suitable for any garden, the spherical shape, which is usually available as a high strain, remains clear in the growth.
