By: Miss Wulan
Durian is classified as Durio Zibethinus. It is native to Southeast Asia. Durian is known as “King of Fruit”. It is not only the most expensive fruit but also the most controversial fruit. It is only fruit which is banned from airline cabins, hotels and some public transports.
The durian tree is large and very tall. It can grow up to 25-50 meters and it has green elliptic leaves. A durian tree usually can bear fruit after four of five years. The durian fruit, which can hang from any branches, matures in about three months after pollination. The fruit can grow up to 30 cm long and 15 cm in diameter. The husk is covered with sharp thorns. The color of the husk ranges from green to brown. The flesh is pale yellow. It is very soft but not juicy. When it is ripe, it tastes sweet and smells very strong.
Durian contains a lot of sugar, vitamin C, and potassium. Durian is also a good source of carbohydrates, proteins, and fats. Durian is usually eaten fresh. Sometimes it is also cooked to make “dodol” or jam.
Durian used to be grown from seeds, but now it is propagated by grafting.
