Kapok Tree split seed pod (Ceiba pentandra)
The Kapok was considered the sacred world tree by the ancient Maya — Yaxche — the tree that connected the underworld, earth, and heavens. The Kapok pod splits to release its fibre — thousands of seeds carried on individual silk-like threads, so light they can travel miles on a single breath of wind.
