💡 Care Tip: After arrival, keep your Catalpa in a protected location while it acclimates and water thoroughly if the potting soil feels dry. When planting, choose a spacious location with adequate room for its mature canopy and root system. Plant at approximately the same depth as it was growing in the nursery pot, water thoroughly, and maintain consistent moisture during the first growing season. Avoid planting too close to buildings, pavement, or overhead utility lines because Catalpa can become a large tree at maturity.
