The silk floss tree (Ceiba speciosa) is a species
of deciduous tree native to the north-east of Argentina, east of
Bolivia, Paraguay, Uruguay and southern Brazil. It is resistant to
drought and moderate cold. It grows fast in spurts when water is
abundant, and sometimes reaches more than 82 ft in height. Its trunk is
bottle-shaped, generally bulging in its lower third, measuring up to 7
ft in girth.
