Catalpa, Japanese Hybrid. This is an ornamental tree of great 
value. It is hardy and of rapid growth. Even without cultiva- 
tion, a small tree is said to grow in live years to a height of 
twenty-five feet, with a circumference of two feet at one foot above 
the ground. Foliage dense, and of a deep-green color. It 
blooms profusely for several weeks. Flowers, fragrant, white, with 
small purple dots and a shade of yellow around the throat. Pro- 
fessor Hussmann, of the Missouri State Agricultural College, 
says: "Massive in all its proportions, S looks like a production of 
the tropical zone. ... It may be truly called a regal tree. Plants 
the size of small straws, sent me through the mail last May, which 
I planted late in that month, have grown this summer seven feet 
high, and from four to five inches in circumference at the base. 
I think it the fastest growing tree I know. It makes a beautiful 
object on the lawn, and should be in every one's dooryard." 50
