My name is Heidi & i am from Australia. I have stumbled accross your site in an effort to find out more about the Floss Silk Tree, Chorisia, or perhaps Ceiba! I am not overly educated about the science of these things, but i am a botanical illustrator, with a long time curiosity for the Floss silk tree. Having found an article about them when i was a kid, I finally discovered there was one close to home here in Australia, & i have been illustrating them since.I feel that your site will be a valuable way for me to discover more about the plants tat i am illustrating, whichever - one it may be...

I hope to become more involved in botanical illustration as it is just so wonderful, with new stuff to learn every day, & every bit helps! I will check in on various topics from now on. Thanks, Heidi.

I live in: Australia

My zone is: NSW Aust
