| Take a look at this tree: Catalpa, also spelled Catawba. That could be what you are seeing. It's a very fast growing tree. |

| Could be paulownia. A beautiful trash tree. |

| I think it is paulownia. It is all over I95 exit ramps in central VA. I confused it with wisteria from a distance then until I stopped one day to look for babies then discovered it was actually the tree which was flowering. |
