Catalpa defoliant agents here: Tree sorta Sphinx moth nursery 2011-06-29 - Town Creek - Photo by Ed Waggener. They're here and they will soon defoliate the old catalpa tree. Catalpa worms arrive each summer to strip the leaves from the catalpa tree. The leaves always grow back, but the trees do look a bit awkward without summer clothes. There are usually enough worms for fishing bait, and the ones which survive after that grow into big but a bit drab sphinx moths. For more on the worms, see Ceratoma catalpae at Wikipedia. Photo taken June 29, 2011. Comments? | Click here to share, print, or bookmark this photo.
