“Rainbow” Durian aka Pelangi Durian (Durio zibethinus) – Sourced from Papua, Indonesia; vendor has supplied me the next data for this cultivar: It’s a candy and creamy Durian well-liked for its sporadic purple coloration; the odor just isn’t intense. The purple coloration happens from blended genetics – these have naturally hybridized over time with D. graveolens. Fruit manufacturing begins between 3-5 years and peak manufacturing begins between years 7-10.
- I presently have a complete of 12 Durian seedlings. They’re a number of months previous, and the bulk survived the temps dipping into the 40s a few weeks in the past with restricted safety. True Leaves are rising on all seedlings. With their fats taproot, these Durians must be planted within the floor ASAP to keep away from root points. I’m maintaining a tally of 3 extra seedlings that will or could not survive. I’m offering these seedlings in teams of three or extra.
If you’re , I ask you meet the next circumstances:- Are literally concerned about rising these to maturity. Any intention to resell these can be met with the fury of 10,000 Suns.
- Have sufficient yard area/circumstances to develop these timber to maturity. Durians like full solar, water, vitamins, and so on; instructed spacing between timber is 30-50ft. Im assuming if youre , you recognize what work it will take.

Right here is the knowledge I’ve supplied by the vendor: It is a selection not extensively identified or cultivated exterior of Padang Sidempuan, Sumatra (supply). The tree itself is smaller and shorter than its well-liked cousin, Salacca zalacca, however is reported to have a tastier fruit. The flesh of the fruit has sporadic purple coloration. This tree is an understory/shade-loving tree, good to plant in clumps underneath one thing bigger you could have fruiting proper now. The draw back to this selection, as with most snake fruit, is there are numerous spines on the tree, and atleast 1 male plant is required for pollination. Not instructed for these with younger youngsters. First harvest usually happens between 3-5 years.
- I ask that you just meet the identical fundamental standards as outlined for the Durians; after all, nutrient and rising circumstances can be totally different. I’ll solely be giving these out in teams of 4 or extra.
