Background InformationThe Kapok tree is native to the tropical rain forest of South America and can now be found in rainforest across the world. At a height of one hundred fifty feet or more, it towers over the other trees in the rain forest. Its trunk can reach a diameter of nine feet. It bears brown seeds in pods that burst open inside, the seeds are surrounded by a white fiber that is like cotton.
The people of the rain forests use the Kapok for many purposes. Because the trunks are so long and straight, they are used for canoes called dugouts. The fluffy seed coverings are used in pillows an mattresses, as well as in flotation devices, because they are water-resistant and buoyant.
