Anyone interested D- mail me.

If you are growing them, what do you like about them, show us your pics!

I love their flowers! They remind me of orchids!

Did you know that they only bloom when it is going to rain?

The old farmers would go by their bloomtime when putting their hay up. They knew that when the catalpa exploded in blossom, rain was sure to follow.

Our catalpas never let us down when we put hay up! We learned to wait until the rain came when they bloomed!

So what do you not like about a catalpa too!?
