Simbad, the kapok comes from Ceiba pentandra (Kapok tree) . The names are very similar so it is somewhat confusing.
El Ciebo is nickname here in Mexico of Erythrina (Coral tree) species
....as Delonix1 confirmed.
Kapok tree (Ceiba pentandra ) here:

It is not so good close up. The flower itself is quite interesting. Thank you Pansypotter and Simbad for your comments.
