The tree is the sole source of food for the catalpa sphinx moth (Ceratomia catalpae), the leaves being eaten by the caterpillars. When caterpillars are numerous, infested trees may be completely defoliated. Defoliated catalpas produce new leaves readily, but with multiple generations occurring, new foliage may be consumed by subsequent broods.
The flowers are 2.5–4 cm across, trumpet shaped, white with yellow spots inside; they grow in panicles of 20–40. In the northern states of the USA, it is a late bloomer, putting forth great panicles of white flowers in June or early in July when the flowers of other trees have mostly faded.
They have yellow pea-flowers in pendulous leafless racemes 10–40 cm (4–15.5 in) long in spring, which makes them very popular garden trees. In L. anagyroides , the racemes are 10–20 cm (4–8 in) long, with densely packed flowers; in L. alpinum the racemes are 20–30 cm (8–12 in) long, but with the flowers sparsely along the raceme. [ 1 ]
The flowers are produced in pendulous racemes 20–40 cm (8–16 in) long, each flower 4–7 cm (1 + 5 ⁄ 8 – 2 + 3 ⁄ 4 in) diameter with five yellow petals of equal size and shape. The fruit is a legume , 30–60 cm (12–24 in) long and 1.5–2.5 cm ( 9 ⁄ 16 –1 in) broad, with a pungent odor and containing several seeds.
