Catalpa bungei, commonly known as Manchurian catalpa, is a species of catalpa native to China . The specific epithet honors the botanist Alexander Bunge, who collected the specimens that Carl Anton von Meyer later described.[3] The flowers are arranged in a corymb and are densely spotted with pink. It is cultivated in China, along with C. ovata, for its wood,[4] which is also used for coffins,[5] ancestral tablets,[6] and oars.[7] It also used as an ornamental tree.[3]
