This Catalpa is an ideal tree for small gardens because of its small size. It will provide good shade near a terrace for example.
Deciduous tree up to 7m. Round crown. Short trunk with greyish-brown bark that falls off on larger trees. Heart-shaped, light green leaves, accompanied by very showy, fragrant, bell-shaped, white flowers with yellowish and purplish spots. Its fruit, ripe in October, is a long capsule similar to a bean.
