It is tolerant of most soil conditions, but it prefers a moist loam with plenty of organic material. This tree has a rounded crown with spreading branches, coarse leaves, and brittle wood. The foliage is noted to be very large. These leaves turn yellow in the fall and then eventually turn black. Northern catalpa has showy white flowers that have bright yellow and purple patterns on the inside of the flower. They flower in late spring to early summer and produce long, showy, green seed pods. This plant is hardier than the southern catalpa (Catalpa bignonioides) and blooms earlier. The northern catalpa is a natural host to two native moths, the catalpa sphinx (Ceratomia catalpae) and the tersa sphinx (Xylophanes tersa), which are important food sources for birds and bats. The two US species can be distinguished as follows: Southern catalpa (C. bignonioides): Foliage with a fetid odor; lower corolla lobe entire; densely spotted with purple; seed wings rounded like a pointed paintbrush. Northern catalpa (C. speciosa): Foliage with “green” odor; lower corolla lobe cleft; sparsely spotted with purple; seed wings flattened.\u0026quot;,\u0026quot;https:\/\/encrypted-tbn0.gstatic.com\/images?q\\u003dtbn:ANd9GcRDU1BbtrXo1nUhPYzfVa9qxZ2EiwyexUPCRdCDLjucjuh97LLRoK2f9j6dc584pZqXU-oALFL4zdO-L8YcTA\u0026quot;,\u0026quot;North Carolina Extension Gardener Plant Toolbox\u0026quot;,\u0026quot;https:\/\/encrypted-tbn0.gstatic.com\/faviconV2?url\\u003dhttps:\/\/plants.ces.ncsu.edu\\u0026client\\u003dAIM\\u0026size\\u003d128\\u0026type\\u003dFAVICON\\u0026fallback_opts\\u003dTYPE,SIZE,URL\u0026quot;,[[1780336478473982,103521287,3308507989],null,null,null,null,[[0,10]]]]]--\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e.

Northern catalpas grow well in a variety of soils and a wide range of soil conditions. The plant can tolerate acidic, alkaline, loamy, rich, sandy, silty, well-drained, wet, and clay soil. However, the tree does grow best when it has at least four hours of direct sunlight each day. You will most often find northern catalpa trees in USDA Hardiness Zones 4-8, although you may occasionally find some outside of this region. Southern catalpas can also withstand a variety of soils and soil conditions. Like its northern counterpart, the southern catalpa can tolerate clay soil, wet or dry conditions, and a range of other climates and environmental factors. However, it thrives best in rich, moist soil. Also like the northern catalpa trees, southern catalpas grow best when they have several hours of direct sunlight each day – so they will not thrive in full shade. Southern catalpas are native to the southern part of the United States and grow best in USDA Hardiness Zones 5-9. This makes the tree more suitable and prevalent in hotter parts of the United States, such as the climates found in its home origins in states such as Florida, Georgia, and Alabama. Both species of catalpa trees can be grown from seed or from root cuttings.\u0026quot;,\u0026quot;https:\/\/encrypted-tbn0.gstatic.com\/images?q\\u003dtbn:ANd9GcRJPVcq687SokydwnrUbmlFzLd60uVoJj_QLnfk5hTfAoFBShvELk5N5Ifu1p-xNaoatnLvCYF9o4OMRbKfew\u0026quot;,\u0026quot;A-Z Animals\u0026quot;,\u0026quot;https:\/\/encrypted-tbn1.gstatic.com\/faviconV2?url\\u003dhttps:\/\/a-z-animals.com\\u0026client\\u003dAIM\\u0026size\\u003d128\\u0026type\\u003dFAVICON\\u0026fallback_opts\\u003dTYPE,SIZE,URL\u0026quot;,[[1780336478473982,103521287,3308507989],null,null,null,null,[[0,27]]]]]--\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e.\u003c!--TgQPHd|[]--\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c!--TgQPHd|[]--\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-copy-service-computed-style='font-family: \"Google Sans\", Roboto, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; font-weight: 400; margin: 0px 0px 12px; text-decoration: none; border-bottom: 0px rgb(10, 10, 10);' data-sae=\"\" data-complete=\"true\" data-hveid=\"CAAIIxAG\" data-sfc-cb=\"\" data-sfc-root=\"c\" data-sfc-cp=\"\" class=\"Z1qcYe\"\u003e\n\u003cspan data-copy-service-computed-style='font-family: \"Google Sans\", Roboto, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; font-weight: 400; margin: 0px; text-decoration: none; border-bottom: 0px rgb(10, 10, 10);' data-complete=\"true\" data-sfc-cb=\"\" data-sfc-root=\"c\" data-sfc-cp=\"\" class=\"T286Pc\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-copy-service-computed-style='font-family: \"Google Sans\", Roboto, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; font-weight: 600; margin: 0px; text-decoration: none; border-bottom: 0px rgb(10, 10, 10);' data-complete=\"true\" data-sfc-cb=\"\" data-sfc-root=\"c\" class=\"Yjhzub\"\u003epH Range:\u003c!--TgQPHd|[]--\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e Extremely tolerant of pH variations, easily managing highly \u003cspan data-copy-service-computed-style='font-family: \"Google Sans\", Roboto, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; font-weight: 400; margin: 0px; text-decoration: none; border-bottom: 0px rgb(10, 10, 10);' data-complete=\"true\" data-sfc-cb=\"\" data-sfc-root=\"c\" data-sfc-cp=\"\" class=\"\"\u003e\u003ca data-copy-service-computed-style='font-family: \"Google Sans\", Roboto, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; font-weight: 500; margin: 0px; text-decoration: underline 1px rgb(21, 88, 214); border-bottom: 0px rgb(21, 88, 214);' href=\"https:\/\/kb.jniplants.com\/northern-catalpa-catalpa-speciosa\" data-hveid=\"CAAIIxAH\" rel=\"noopener\" class=\"H23r4e\" target=\"_blank\"\u003ealkaline and acidic conditions alike\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c!--TgQPHd|[[\u0026quot;https:\/\/kb.jniplants.com\/northern-catalpa-catalpa-speciosa\u0026quot;,null,null,[null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,[{\u0026quot;1218\u0026quot;:[17]}]],17,null,\u0026quot;Northern Catalpa | Johnson\u0026#39;s Nursery | KB\u0026quot;,\u0026quot;Core Characteristics. Category: Tree. Wisconsin Native: No - Native to North America. USDA Hardiness Zone: to zone 4. Mature Height: 40-60 feet. Mature Spread: 30-45 feet. Growth Rate: Very Fast.

Bloom Period: May, June. Foliage: Medium green, large. Fall Color: Insignificant, rarely yellow. Urban Approved: No. Fruit Notes: Seed pod, 8-20 inches long. Suggested Uses. Northern Catalpa is highly adaptable to many site conditions and should be considered for tough sites where other trees struggle. It tolerates both drought and poor drainage, partial shade and full sun, road salt, and alkaline to acid soils. However, it is somewhat sensitive to air pollution and has been reported to have weaker wood and branch angles (more on that in the Leaf Lore section).

General: It is a perennial deciduous tree which readily grows in USDA Hardiness Zones 4 to 8. It has moderate to fast growth, tending to grow rapidly when juvenile, but slows with maturity. The height at 20 years is about 20 feet. The biggest northern catalpa recorded is in Indiana. It is 85 feet tall with a spread of 81 feet and a circumference of 290 inches at 4.5 feet above ground level. Catalpas prefer moist, deep, well drained soil, but adapts to dry or wet soils. The soil pH may range from 5.5 to 7.0. It prefers an open sunny space to partial shade. When it grows from seed the tree trunk rarely divides into two or more branches about the same size. If the tree is cut and grows back there is prolific spouting from the stump. The bole may be straight, but it is usually crooked.\u0026quot;,\u0026quot;https:\/\/encrypted-tbn0.gstatic.com\/images?q\\u003dtbn:ANd9GcQbPPKdFaibHcNZ-aIrBaIOr5rYrLY54UPFjwpHHYwv8uGmYco71ZVXBzRikRrnSo1fm2ykAyVx3cQBt2wuFg\u0026quot;,\u0026quot;USDA Plants Database (.gov)\u0026quot;,\u0026quot;https:\/\/encrypted-tbn2.gstatic.com\/faviconV2?url\\u003dhttps:\/\/plants.sc.egov.usda.gov\\u0026client\\u003dAIM\\u0026size\\u003d128\\u0026type\\u003dFAVICON\\u0026fallback_opts\\u003dTYPE,SIZE,URL\u0026quot;,[[1780336478473982,103521287,3308507989],null,null,null,null,[[0,43]]]]]--\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e from fences, homes, and septic lines.
