Yes @FaridTDF according to Wikipedia these are belonging to

Gossypium arboreum catagory but it's not exactly gossypium aboreum,and this types of plants are less than 2% in the world now

En Argentina existe un árbol parecido al que tu muestras @ayann, llamado "Palo borracho", es pariente de las "ceibas" y es muy plantado en muchos paseos y plazas de varias ciudades del país. Por otro lado forma parte de la cultura indígena y gauchesca en cantos y leyendas.

La forma gorda en el medio hace que se generen muchos tipos de cuentos y leyendas. Forma parte de nuestro folklore.
