Northern Catalpa,also known as the Cigar, Worm or Bait tree "the wood's beautiful grain is for furniture, interior trim and cabinetry. Catalpa has one of the lowest shrinkage/expansion rates of any hardwood.The tree is often sought out by fishing enthusiasts, not for the plant itself, but for a common parasite that is used as bait. The catalpa moth is widely regarded as one of the best live baits, and the tree may be planted strictly for this purpose." #MyWalks #Canada
