Ceiba Pentandra
Also known as: Kapok, Java cotton, silk cotton, samauma

Here is a deciduous tree that has the potential to become extremely large, reaching a height of over 200 feet, but more on an average of 30-100 feet. The straight, cylindrical bole can be 40-120 inches in diameter, is usually spiny, and have massive attractive buttresses.
It is native to Mexico, Central America and the Caribbean, northern South America, and tropical west Africa. A very sacred, multipurpose tree with a wide range of uses for the local population. It is especially valued for its silky cotton fiber that is produced within its fruit, but also supplies foods, medicines and many other commodities. It has become naturalized in many other parts of the tropical world as an amazing ornamental and often grown as a bonsai.

The creamy white to pink flowers are an important source of nectar and pollen for honey bees. Its wood is lightweight and porous which is good for making carvings, coffins and dugout canoes. The silky fibers that disperse the seeds are too small for weaving but make great stuffing for bedding, cushions, plush animals and life preservers. Prolonged exposure to harvesting these fibers can cause irritation to the eyes, nose and throat.
The bark decoction has been used as a diuretic, aphrodisiac, and to treat headache, as well as type II diabetes. It is used as an additive in some versions of the psychedelic drink Ayahuasca.

The seeds produce a vegetable oil that resembles cottonseed oil, and is also used in soap and fertilizers. It does have some potential as a biofuel and in paint preparation. The seeds, and the oil, do contain cyclopropenoid fatty acids which cause abnormal physiological reactions in animals. Therefore the consumption of kapok seeds or seed oil should be discouraged unless the cyclopropenoid acids have been chemically removed.
It is intolerant of frost. Best sited in moist well drained soils in full sun. Water needs vary during the year. Trees appreciate abundant moisture during their vegetative period, but prefer much less moisture in winter during the dry season (December – February in southern Florida) when trees have lost most of their leaves or are deciduous. Flowers typically begin blooming in February near the end of the dry season, followed by fruiting. New foliage typically begins to appear shortly after flowering. USDA zone 10-12

**This is not to be confused with the RED silk cotton Kapok tree, that is from the genus Bombax, species ceiba. Both are from the family Malvaceae. We also offer the seeds to Bombax ceiba (Red silk cotton) here in our store.

This offer is for 15 seeds.

Gifted 3 for Christmas
Color: Concrete Grey, Size: Standard
Ordered these for 3 people, 3 different colors of these. I did not know what to expect for the price but when they all opened them they LOVED THEM!!!!! The 3 of them instantly put theirs on. One person slept in hers. ALL loved how SOFT and comfortable they were!! One size fits all works great. The size is large enough with extra room to order this item for some one who is on the extra large size ( 275 lbs) with a completely comfortable amount of room left over to not feel like it’s so small your popping out of it. She loves hers. Also person is 5’7” and it came to their mid kneecap Loved the amount of room. My 27 year old son sent me a picture today of the one we gave his girlfriend for Christmas ( 5’4” and not more than 125 lbs) and her is the fireworks one…. Super cool design even for a 28 year old or my wife. Late 50’s in age. Anyway he sends me a picture of him in hers that we gifted her, and he was loving it. He said “ super warm and comfortable and I’m so jealous”. Online are all female models but my family runs on the big side and we live in the NE part of the US, just fyiin case you are thinking maybe it was only for girls/ women) He’s 6’4 and maybe 185 lbs in hers( lol) looked great on him. Plenty of room without looking baggy. Long enough in the arms but not overly so. Came to just above his knees maybe an inch. So as I’m writing this review I’m ordering 2 more for both my sons age 26& 27 and they were both so bummed they didn’t get one (honestly I didn’t think they would wear it. I suck at picking out gifts but this was a HOME RUN) And they will be getting one also. Shipping was awesome. I ordered all 3 on Monday the Monday prior to Christmas Eve. And all came on time for a great holiday. It said would be delivered on Christmas Eve day. I wasn’t going to hold my breath but they all came that day.

Best blanket hoodie
Color: Mellow Rose, Size: Standard
I own one and loved it so much, I decided to buy for my friends as a gift when the weather was cold. They also loved it. It’s very soft to touch and perfect to cuddle in during winter to keep yourself warm

Warm and Cozy
Size: Adult, Style: Solid, Color: Grey
Bought the adult version in grey for my little brother for Christmas. He absolutely loves it! He wears the thing all the time. He sleeps in it, plays computer games while wearing it, and lounges around the house in it. When washing and drying the washer is fine but I recommend letting it air dry or putting it on tumble dry to prevent the white cotton from bunching up to keep it soft. It is very soft, a good weight, good quality, and size. He does not use the robe tie. My brother is 6 foot and the pocket hangs low but is really big. The pocket is durable—He puts our house cat in the pocket and carries her around in it. He loves this Snuggie and was so excited to get it for Christmas.

Buy it!!! Long, soft, warm winter perfection! ( updated after wear)
⚠️ WARNING ⚠️ You'll want to hibernate all winter in it ! 😆 I'm a 5'10" female and THIS THING IS LONG ENOUGH! (If you're tall, you'll understand why I yelled that part lol) I bought the oversized option. It grazes the top of my feet without dragging the ground, which is literally perfect. 👌 It comes vacuum sealed, so pop it in the dryer when you get it to fluff it up. It is so incredibly soft both inside and out, but particularly so on the inside. Its large enough to be fully dressed underneath, but when you feel the softness & warmth - you probably wont want to be. I wasn't sure about the cuffed sleeves, but once I put it on I realized how much better they are than the open type sleeves of another brand I ordered. They allow you to retain 100% function while wearing a blanket, essentially keeping it from getting in your way. I purchased this bc I'm always cold, and also because it just looked so comfortable. It did not disapoint on either front. It's heavy without feeling weighted , and warm without making me sweat. I opted for the tan / beige option, and it was pretty close to the photo color wise. In person the fabric has a tiny bit of sheen/ reflectivity that almost gives it a slight gold tint in some light. Overall though, true to color. Seriously, I think this thing might be perfect. I plan to order additional colors before word gets out and they sell out lol *EDIT TO UPDATE*** Ive been wearing these things all winter ( yes, I purchased another lol) and after repeated wear and washing I will say that they DO lose a little fluff on the faux shearling side (the inside) and the edges have begun to shed a tiny bit. I've been wearing them A LOT though, we're talking about a dozen runs thru laundry at least... not something that happened immediately. And honestly, it wasn't to the point that I noticed it much... until the next one arrived and reminded me how much fluffier they start off lol I would still buy it... just a small update with wear update worth noting.
