An American Bean Tree Right Here in Rochester!

This American Bean Tree (Catalpa) was planted right between the Rochester Cathedral and Rochester Castle over 100 years ago!  Who woulda thunk it? I just want to note, though, as an American, I'm a bit of an authority on American beans and American Trees, and I think it important to mention that we don't usually grow our beans on trees.  usually our trees are bean-free, and usually our beans are without tree.  So when we get a bean-filled tree, I guess we like to export them to show off a bit.
