Silk cotton trees (such as *Bombax ceiba*) are mainly found in Moist deciduous and semi-evergreen forests.
These trees are characteristic species of tropical and subtropical regions that experience a distinct dry season but receive sufficient rainfall to support deciduous and semi-evergreen vegetation. They are large deciduous trees known for their bright red flowers and cotton-like fiber from their seed pods.
