Great image!!!
Where did you find a Kapok tree?
Kapok: a word I haven't heard since I was a kid.
Used to be used in life preservers, upholstery and a few other things

" . . . .You can still see some of the remaining fountains and landscaping at the Sam Ash Store, 923 McMullen Booth Rd, Clearwater, FL 33759."

Back when it was a restaurant, in Clearwater Fla., my wife used to go there with her Auntie and Uncle for delightful meals in the garden.
The original (huge) Kapok tree was still there during our last visit.
