Perhaps Trumpet Vine Seeds?

I got these seeds in 2010, but I can't remember from who. I am doing a massive seed inventory, and would like to get these labeled.

I searched for "Tablia's Pink" and "Tabhia's Pink" online, with no direction. Since this is the only info I have, it makes it difficult!

Here are the photos I have. I have only figured out that they are from the Bignoniaceae family. They look smaller than the regular trumpet vine seeds I have. Just not sure what I have here.

Any direction would be appreciated. I wish I knew how to search for this kind of stuff better, as I always seem to be needing help. Thank you :)

They look a lot like Bignonia. I found a good pic at a link-that-must-not-be-named. If you google images "Bignonia seeds the first pic should be it.

Perhaps they are from a pink type of Tabebuia.

Tabebuia pallida, perhaps?

Guessing Pink Trumpet Tree over Trumpet Vine; "Tabhia" seems a reasonable phonetic approximation of "Tabebuia".

Oops - meant to post a link to Tabebuia Impetiginosa seed photo rather than heterophylla, so removed it. Seeds are similar looking, but not sure about size.

I believe bostedo is correct! I knew "Tablia's" must have been spelled wrong. I have been trying to ID this for weeks. THANK YOU!

Guess there's still a question about whether they're Tabebuia Impetiginosa or Heterophylla as both are apparently pink-flowered, known as "pink trumpet tree", and cultivated. Hopefully someone else will know more.
