The house I grew up in had the front yard lined with these
trees. I can still remember thier fragrance over 30 years
later! I would climb up in one and enjoy being surrounded
by the clusters of fragrant white flowers! It has to be one
of my most treasured memories as a child!

From Wikipedia:
Catalpa, commonly called catalpa or catawba, is a genus
of flowering plants in the family Bignoniaceae, native to
warm temperate regions of North America, the
Caribbean, and East Asia.
Mostly deciduous trees, they typically grow to 12–18 metres (39–59 ft) tall and 6–12 metres (20–39 ft) wide. A 10-year-old sapling will stand about 6 metres (20 ft) tall. They can be recognized by their large, heart-shaped to three-lobed leaves, showy white or yellow flowers in broad panicles, and in the autumn by their 20–50 centimetres (7.9–20 in) long fruits, which resemble a slender bean pod, containing numerous small flat seeds, each seed having two thin wings to aid in wind dispersal.

Due to their large leaf size, catalpas provide very dark shade and are a popular habitat for many birds, providing them good shelter from rain and wind. These trees have very little limb droppage, but drop large, dark brown bean pods during late summer. The wood of catalpas is quite soft.
