Catalpa bungei explained

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.[1] 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,[2] which is also used for coffins,[3] ancestral tablets,[4] and oars.[5] It also used as an ornamental tree.[1]
