the only mosquito-repellent plant with patented effectiveness
Catambra is a plant from the Bignoniaceae family, native to Latin America, capable of repelling mosquitoes in a completely natural and scientifically proven way.
This effect is due to catalpol, an odorless and harmless substance for humans and animals found in its leaves.
After years of research and experimentation, AmbrogioItalia has concentrated and enhanced the amount of catalpol naturally present, thus resulting in a plant with mosquito-repellent action up to four times more effective than specimens of the same species.
It can be planted all year round.

Catambra® Half Trunk
Recommended for medium-sized spaces such as balconies, terraces, French windows, gazebos, and green areas. The plant has a height of 160-180 cm.
The measurements refer to the circumference of the trunk: as the trunk circumference increases, so does the age of the plant and the volume of the canopy. During the winter period, the plant is leafless.
