Durian Botanically known as Durio zibethinus from Malvaceae family. Durian fruit is one of the popular tropical fruits known for its one of a kind fragrance and flavor. D. zibethinus is the only species commercially cultivated on a large scale and available outside of its native region.

The variety we have is D24. The D24 durian is also known as Sultan Durian and is one of the well known durian species alongside Musang King. The flesh is golden yellowish in colour, creamy texture with a bittersweet taste. The flesh is sweet, less fibrous, with large seeds and easier to eat. Its shape ranges from oblong to round, the colour of its husk green to brown.
The leaves are evergreen, elliptic to oblong and 10–18cm long. The flowers are produced on large branches and directly on the trunk, Durian trees have one or two flowering and fruiting periods per year. The durian fruit can hang from any branch, and matures roughly three months after pollination. The durian is somewhat similar in appearance to the jackfruit.
