Thank you. I believe it is a Catalpa.

Forgot the rest of this post...

1) Or C. bignonioides (don't know your location, but this is probably

more
common)

2) Tree books with good photos would include National Audubon Society

Field
Guide to North American Trees and Dirr's Hardy Trees & Shrubs.
If you don't mind black and white photos, a very good older book is Donald
Wyman's Trees for American Gardens.
