ʻAʻoleʻike kekahi i ka inoa o ka mea kanu, akā uaʻikeʻia ka lāʻau i nā mea a pau i noho ma ke kūkulu hema. ʻO Catalpa - he lāʻau e ulu nui ana ma ka'Āpana'Oke. ʻO ka poʻe i hele i laila i ke kauwela, hiki iā lākou ke hopu i ka pua. I ka hopena o Iune, ua uhiʻia i nā bele nui-pua me nā kī liʻiliʻi i loko. No lākou, ua kapaʻia ka lāʻauʻo he kauwela.
ʻO Bignonioid (Catalpa bignonioides)
Ua hele maiʻo Bignonia catalpa iā mākou mai ka'Ākau Hema Hikina Hikina, kahi e ulu ai ma nā kahawai muliwai a me nā ululāʻau. Piliʻo ia i ka lepo heʻakika, akā i ka manawa hoʻokahi, heʻeleʻele a heʻe. He kumu pakiaka kona, pili pono e hōʻino. 
Hoʻonui ia i 10 m ka lōʻihi. Hoʻonohonohoʻia nā'ōpū ma keʻano o ka pūniu, e hana ana i ka lei poʻo. Ua uhiʻia me ka nui, a hiki i ka 20 cm o ka lau-iʻo, heʻano'ōmaʻomaʻu'ōmaʻomaʻo, a kokoke i ka uluʻana - ka'ōmaʻomaʻo. 
I ka wā o ka pua e pua i nā pua keʻokeʻo keʻokeʻo i 30 cm me nā'ōmole ulaula i loko. I ka pauʻana o ka pua, hiki i ka hopena o ke kauwela keʻano o ka'ōmaʻomaʻo. E hāʻule i ka hau mua. 
I ko kākou mau latitudes ākea, ua kapaʻiaʻo ia he inoaʻo Catalpa.
He mea nui! ʻO ka hapanui o nāʻano likeʻole i ko mākou'āina e pale i nā huluhulu ma -35 ° C a emi iho i lalo, akā, e hoʻoikaika i ke kūpaʻa o ka lāʻau. ʻO nā makahiki muaʻelua, he lāʻau i uluʻia mai nā kumulāʻau o ka'āpanaʻaʻole i loaʻa ka manawa e kūkulu ai i nā lāʻauʻawaʻawa a ma ka nui o nā kumu e loaʻa ai.
Nana (Catalpa bignonioides 'Nana')
ʻO Catalpa "Nana" i ke kiʻekiʻe e hiki i 6 m, e hana ana i ka lei nani nani o ka hoholaʻana i nā lālā, i uhiʻia me ke kukui'ōmaʻomaʻo keʻokeʻo a me ka lau o ka'ōpū. ʻAʻole i ulu a ulu nui loa. Alohaʻo ia i ka loam hou, kaʻaila a me ka pua. 
ʻO kēiaʻano maikaʻi nā hoʻololi ka wela nui a me ka nele i ka wai, no laila pono ka nui a hoʻokahe pinepineʻia. I ka wā e ulu ana nā kōpena, pono pono ke noʻonoʻoʻole i nā lālā eʻaeʻole i kaʻohi a hiki i ka meaʻino.

Ke paipai mākou iāʻoe e hoʻomaʻamaʻa iāʻoe iho i nāʻano pele, nā meli, linden, acacia, willow, a me nā lāʻau kedera.
Kiki (Catalpa bungei)
Ua hele mai kēiaʻano i kā mākou latitudes mai North China, no laila, ua loaʻa iā ia ka inoaʻelua "Manchurian catalpa". 
ʻO ka inoa kūlana i loaʻa mai i nā inoa o ka mea olakino Germanʻo Alexander Bunge. I nā makahiki 1830-1831,ʻo iaʻo ka Europa mua loa eʻohi i nā mea ulu lāʻau i ka holoʻana i'Asia.
ʻO Catalpa o kēiaʻano ke ho'ākākaʻia e ka pāpale pyramidal. Loaʻa i nā lau ovoid kahāhā aiʻole ka olonā i kahiʻano kumu liʻiliʻi, i kekahi manawa me nā nihoʻoiʻoi ma nāʻaoʻao. Aia kekahi'ōmaʻomaʻo'ōmaʻomaʻo uliuli e pili ana i nā petioles. Hōʻea nā Petioles i ka lōʻihi o 8 cm, aʻo nā lau hoʻi - 15 knm. 
Hoʻonui nā inflorescences a hiki i ka 3.5 knm ka lōʻihi, e hele ana i 3-12 mau kulu corymbose me nā wahiʻulaʻula. Ma hope o ka uluʻana o nā'ōpuʻu ulu i 25 knm ka lōʻihi. Pono kēiaʻano catalpa e mālama pono, e ulu mālie, ma nā latitudes o ka'ākau, hiki ke hoʻokuʻu i kahi kiʻekiʻe o ka hau.
Keʻike neiʻoe? ʻO ka hapa nui o catalpa e ulu ana i nā nahele ulu o Cuba, Jamaica, a me Haiti. I nā latitudes lauleʻa,ʻeono mauʻano e ulu ana i loko o ka nāhelehele,ʻehā o lākou ma Kina, aʻelua mau'ē aʻe maʻAmelika Huipūʻia.
Nani (Catalpa speciosa)
ʻO kaʻike iʻike maikaʻiʻia ma ke ala waena, e piʻi ana i 10 m ka lōʻihi. ʻO ke kū pololei i ke kāʻei kapu ka lei poʻo me ka nui o ka oval hiki i ka 25 knm. 
I ke kau waena o Iulai, ua uhiʻia i nā pua nani he keʻokeʻo a iʻole ka māmāʻulaʻula me nā paʻu melemele a me nā kī'ōleʻele.
ʻO nā pua pua mai nā hebedomaʻelua i ka mahina e pili ana i ka māhele o ka ulu. I ka hopena o nā hua ulu -ʻikeʻia nā pipi lōʻihi a hiki i 40 knm. Noho lākou ma luna o ka lāʻau a hiki i ka uluʻana, akā e hoʻopauʻia eʻOkakopa. 
He nani ka Catalpa i kekahiʻano me nāʻano kūikawā kūikawā, kahi liʻiliʻi, kahi i kapaʻia he pulverulent. 
ʻO Tibet (Catalpa Tibetica)
Hōʻikeʻia kēiaʻano ma hope o nā mea a pau, i ka makahiki 1921, a heʻano like ia me kahi ovoid. He lāʻau liʻiliʻi kēia a hiki i ka 5 m ka lōʻihi, akā nui ka ulu lāʻau i ulu ma nā ululāʻau o ka mauna a me nā mākeo ma kahi kiʻekiʻe o 2400-2700 m ma luna o kaʻilikai. ʻO ka noho kūlohelohe kaʻaoʻao'ākau o ke Yunnan Province a me ka hema hikina o Tibet.
ʻO ka palahalaha, nā lālā pale i lalo i lalo,ʻaʻohe keʻokeʻoʻeleʻele uliuli mai luna mai.

Fargeza (Catalpa fargesii)
ʻO kekahi o nāʻanoʻano catalpa nui loa. Hoʻonui ka lāʻau i 30 m ka lōʻihi ma konaʻano kūlohelohe - ma ka hema komohana o Kina, ma nā panalāʻauʻo Yunnan, Sichuan, a hiki i nā kaona'āinaʻona. Ke ulu nui nei ia ma nā kuahiwi. 
ʻO nā lālā o ka mea kanu heʻano liʻiliʻi - 12 cm ākea a 20 cm ka lōʻihi. ʻO ka maʻamau,ʻo keʻano o ka'ōpū heʻano triangular aʻano ovoid paha. Ma muli o nā'āpana kālā, hiki paha iā lākou keʻaneʻane hikiʻole ke uhiʻia me ka liʻiliʻi palupalu a'ekeʻele paha, me kaʻeleʻele me ka liʻiliʻi melemele mai lalo mai. 
ʻO nā pua he māmā a me ka mālamalama nui paha ka'ōniʻoniʻo a iʻole kaʻulaʻula keʻokeʻo me ka leo o ka malu. ʻOhiʻia i loko o ka'ōwili piano o 7-15 pua. Hōʻikeʻia i ka hapa mua o ke kauwela. 
Ma ka hopena o ka pua eʻike i ka pahu lōʻihi lōʻihi a hiki i ka 80 knm ka lōʻihi aʻo ka 5-6 mau wale nō ka laula wale nō, e hoʻonui ana i ka hopena. Aia ma waenakonu he mau pua liʻiliʻi liʻiliʻi liʻiliʻi 9 mm ka lōʻihi a 2.5 mm ākea.
Keʻike neiʻoe? Hoʻomaopopo nā meaʻike Pākehā i nā haʻawina o kēiaʻano - Duclos. He mau lālā'ākau ka mea i loaʻaʻole i ka wā'ōpiopio. Heʻuʻuku ka pua a he mauʻulaʻula mai ka lalo. Eia nō naʻe, makemake nā mea kālai'āina mai Kina ma ka manaʻo nui.
Pāla (Catadpa ovate)
ʻO kahi oʻelua tausani makahiki i hala aku nei, ua laweʻia mai kēia iʻa i Iapana mai Kina, kahi i lilo ai i lāʻauʻoihana kokoke i nā luakini Buddhist. I ka makahiki 1849, ua hele mai Iapana i'Europa. 
ʻO ka catalpa ovoid he lāʻau ia i 15 m ka lōʻihi, a he lei lei. Ua uhiʻia nā lālā lālā hele ka lau aia i ka 25 knm ke lōʻihi, loaʻa pinepineʻia he 3-5 mau pale. ʻO ke kumu o ka lau e like me keʻano o ka'ōpū, ke kuhikuhiʻia ka hopena. Hoʻonui ka Petioles i 15 knm ka lōʻihi. ʻO ke'ōmaʻomaʻo o nā lau he'ōmaʻomaʻo ma lalo me ka pubescence palahalaha ma nā māmā, a he'ōmaʻomaʻo ka'ōmaʻomaʻo o luna. 
ʻO kahi hiʻohiʻona - kūʻokoʻa, e like me nā'ā'ī, nā pua liʻiliʻi. E ulu a hiki i 2 knm, e loaʻa i ka'ōmaʻomaʻu, nāʻalaniʻalani a me nā loleʻulaʻulaʻeleʻele. Hōʻikeʻia lākou i Iulai-ʻAukake, a ma hope iho, ua hoʻohuaʻia i ka hua o ka lāʻau pods a 30 cm ka loa a me ka 0.8 wm ka laulā. Akā i loko o ko kākou latitudes hikiʻole iā lākou ke nakinakiʻia, a inā iʻikeʻia lākou,ʻaʻole lākou i loaʻa ka manawa e ulu ai. No laila,ʻo kēia'āpana i loko o mākou wale nō ka hua o nā mea kanu. Ma lalo o nā kūlana maikaʻi, hiki ke ulu i ka makahiki mua o ke ola. 
Ma ka waena waena, ua ulu nui ia e like me kahi lāʻau ulu, kahi liʻiliʻi pinepine i 5 m ke kiʻekiʻe, pinepine i ka hau. Ma ka'āina o ka Hikina hikina, hiki i ka hauʻi ke hiki i ka hua. ʻO kahi wale nō kahi e hiki ai ka lāʻau i konaʻano kūpono ke kahakai moana.
He mea nui! ʻO ka uluʻana o nā moa o catalpa no ka'āina ākea, he mea makemakeʻole ia e kanu i nā mea kanu ma nā'ōmaʻomaʻo. Heʻokoʻa loa nā kūlana o ke kaiaulu ma mua o nā mea i loaʻa ma ke ākea, a ua loli koke ka mea kanu i nā kumu i ulu ai "mai ka wā kamaliʻi mai."
ʻAla (Catalpa x hybrida Spath)
ʻO ka lāʻau o kēiaʻano e ulu ana i 20 m ka lōʻihi, e hana ana i ka lei aliʻi ākea me nā lālā palahalaha. Hoʻopihaʻia lākou me ka nui a 15 knm ka laulā a 20 cm mau lā lōʻihi, heʻano'ōmaʻomaʻo a me ka liʻiliʻi liʻiliʻi.
Wehewehe nā'āpana keʻokeʻoʻeleʻele meʻelua mau kōmele kōmele i loko a me nā pāpaleʻeleʻele. ʻO ka wā ulu e like 25 mau lā. Hoʻopihaʻia me nā pua nani i kēlā me kēia makahiki. I ka pauʻana, ua hoʻokumuʻia nā hua i loko o keʻano o nā pahu liʻiliʻi. 
Pili ke kumulāʻau i nā wahi kū kahi me nā kiʻi a me nā makani. Kāleʻaʻo ia i kahi lepo lepo acidic i hoʻopihaʻia me nā mea momona. I ka'āpana hema, pono e hoʻoinu pinepineʻia ka lāʻau, a ma hope o ka hoʻoinuʻana, e wehe a hoʻomapala i ka lepo a puni ke koʻokoʻo. Hoʻomaopopo ia i kaʻohiʻana, a ma hope iho ua hoʻolaha nuiʻo ia i nā lālā hou. 
ʻIkeʻia i ka hui me nā magnolias a me nā'oaks. Kūpono no nāʻaoʻaoʻelua a me nā mea ulu hoʻokahi no ke kūkuluʻana i nā ala a me nā mea kanu.
Hoʻohālikeʻiaʻo Catalpa i ko mākou mau latitudes e nāʻano. Hiki ke uluʻia nā mea kanu a me nā mea kanu wela ma kaʻaoʻao hema wale nō ma ka'ākau.
ʻO nā lau nui nuiʻole i nānā aku i ka nani, i kākoʻoʻia e nā nani nani nani, nā bele me nāʻoki likeʻole a me nā'ōpala. Me ka mālama pono, hiki i ka lāʻau ke pale i nā huluhu nui. Nui no nā māla mahi kanu a me nā hoʻonani mea kanu.
