Kapok cannot be planted in the north, especially in the ground.There are two reasons.First, the temperature is too low, it is not cold-resistant, the lowest temperature should be above 5 degrees.In winter, the temperature in the north is mostly below zero, and the plants will be frozen to death.Second, the soil acidity and alkalinity are not suitable.It prefers acidic soils, which are too alkaline in the north and can hinder growth.
