Balsa needs a warm and damp climate with lots of rain and good soil drainage. The trees grow naturally in the tropical forests of Central and South America. Balsa also grows in Papua New Guinea where the timber plantations have been grown since the turn of the century. Climate and soil conditions in Australia do not favour the growth of Balsa Wood.
