As long as i know Tabebuia have pamate compound leaves. Not single as on the photo.

Catalpa longissima maybe ?

The flowers are a match, but the leaves didn't seem right. I have never seen either in person, so will defer to your ID experience.

Hi Everybody!! Let us talk native.

I think it is a Chitalpa, a cross between a Catalpa and a Dessert Willow, but not sure.

That certainly looks to be spot on Josephine. It seems to match both flower and leaf.

It could be Chitalpa. There are a couple in the database with bloom but no leaf photos: http://garden.org/plants/searc...

I think Chitalpa too... Some are blooming around Santa Cruz now.

The surest sign that intelligent life exists elsewhere in the universe is that it has never tried to contact us.
