    I recently posted a Pic of a Tree/Bush that just started growing in my moms garden. Thanks to Ron I found out it is a "Catalpa".

    Now my next question is...are they strictly trees or do they come in shrubs as well...
    My boss seems to think it is a Shrub as it has many leaves on it for such a young tree!

    Help...We have to move this soon if it will grow too large!

    Thanks a Bunch!

    Almost always trees - usually large trees. I believe Oikos sells a dwarf one that could maybe be called a "shrub".

    Thank You!!!

    Its too bad because it is a nice tree, but very large!

    Yes, they are nice in a sutable location. Sometimes they can pop up next to a building.
