                    [Summary] => Durian (Durio Zibethinus) is  an attractive evergreen tree with pyramidal canopy. Recommended varieties are durian monthong from Thailand and D24 from Malaysia. 


Growing durian from seeds is not advisable. With this method of propagation, it can grow up to 45 meters making harvesting difficult. The other disadvantage is that it will bear fruits only after 10 to 12 years — a very long time that will take the edge off a winning venture.
