Key features
Description
The bright yellow leaves on Catalpa bignonioides 'Aurea' are perfect for bringing a real splash of colour into the garden. The large, heart shaped, velvety foliage begins with a bronze shade, developing into a clear yellow and then turning yellow/green in late summer. In older trees, creamy white, foxglove-like flowers with purple and yellow spotted throats appear in bundles in June/July and are followed by long, slender seed pods.
The Golden Indian Bean tree, as it is commonly known, is a wonderful slightly spreading small tree that grows to an estimated 5 x 4 metres in 20 years. For smaller spaces, Catalpa bignonioides 'Aurea' can be coppiced and grown as a multistem which will develop even bigger leaves. Best planted in a sunny, sheltered position, 'Aurea' will tolerate most soils, except very damp sites.
