Northern Catalpa is a native deciduous tree with an irregular crown and very large green foliage that turns bright yellow than black in fall. Its clusters of large white flowers with orange and purple inner markings bloom in late spring or early summer, and are followed by long and showy bean-like seed capsules. Grows best in loamy and moist well-drained soils. Tolerates urban conditions, drought, poor soil, and wet soil.
