My wife and I have known each other since we were teenagers. We had our first kiss under a tree in a park near where she lived. Many years later I proposed to her under the same tree. When we got married I collected seeds from the tree and planted them in our back yard. So now we have our love trees offspring, as old as our marriage growing behind our house. They are coming up on 7 years old and are taller than me. Interestingly enough, Northern Catalpa’s have heart shaped leaves.
