While enjoying our last week of Sri Lanka, Rob and I are gearing up for our venture into Borneo, the island where durian originated. Around 30 species of durian can be found in Borneo, including up to 9 edible species (there is some debate over species differentiation). Our goal is to taste them all.
Many people have been emailing me about the picture of the red and yellow fleshed durians I posted on our facebook page while we were in the Philippines. So this post is dedicated to durio graveolens. I can’t wait to taste them again in Borneo!

You blog is very interesting. We are living in the Philippines but never realized how many different varieties of Durian we have there. Can you advise where we can get the Durio graveolens trees there? We would really appreciate your help. Thanks

Hi Georg,
A few people have D. graveolens trees. You can also buy them at SM Lanang during the season. I’ll be posting more about the Philippines the coming weeks (have a series planned) so stay tuned for more information!

hi, yes i have and i would buy it.
it doesnt fix my durian craving completely though, so i would want a normal durian (arancillo, puat, Cob)to enjoy as a wonderful contrast.
where is this guy located? in Davao area? does he have email? thanks,
