Description: Ceiba SpeciosaAlso known as: The Silk Floss Tree, Bombax, Kapok, formerly Chorisia speciosaThis very unique subtropical or tropical, deciduous tree with gorgeous pink flowers is from Brazil and Argentina. The blooms are actually highly variable, lily-like flowers in various combinations of white, pink, often with purple to red striations on the petals. The older the tree, the better the flower display. After blooming, pear shaped fruits appear which have a profusion of silky puffs containing seeds. The silk is extremely soft and is used as a stuffing material.It is resistant to drought and moderately cold hardy to 20F. It grows fast in spurts when water is abundant, and sometimes reaches more than 82 ft in height. The trunk is covered with spiny decorative protuberances, adding to the overall curiosity of the tree. Easy to grow! A premier tree choice for your landscape.This offer is for 10 seeds. For complete transparency we include payment processing & Ebay fees in our shipping/handling cost.*DISCLAIMER*NO RETURNS/REFUNDS/REPLACEMENTS ON SEEDSMost specialty seeds we offer are NOT fast to germinate.Many take several weeks, months, and some even up towards a year depending on dormancy, region, season etc. It is important that the buyer understands that seeds are perishable products and seed germination can be adversely affected by such factors as mold/fungus, bugs, temperature, moisture content, light intensity, dormancy, care, contamination of planting media among many other reasons. These factors are totally out of The Plant Attraction's control and are the buyer's responsibility and risk. Germination recommendations are sent with each order and the buyer is free to research and use their own methods. Floating seeds do not always indicate that the seed is not viable. Many times it is a misconception because the seed does not have the density to sink in water. Accordingly, The Plant Attraction does not guarantee seeds to perform properly regardless of conditions or buyer's methods or mistakes. Since 2006 we have been doing our best to hand sort and provide the freshest, cleanest harvest that is free of defects and bugs.
