Can you name this tree? :)

I have three of these trees in my yard. Kind of rare, and really pricey if you go to get one to plant. Just wondering if any one could guess it's name. :)The flowers are surprisingly beautiful. And the fruit or seed pods are pretty cool too.

I'm stumped,pretty flowers,is it native to Ohio?
Yes it is native to Ohio. It is a very old fashion tree. Not to many folks like it because of the mess it makes in the yard.

Is it a Buckeye
Nope. Another clue. :)
The leaves can get to be as big as a small diner plate. And the fruit is a bean that can be 8-12 inches long.

Yep. Northern Catalpa. No question.

If you have catalpa worms on this tree (some don't have them) they make GREAT fish bait.
