oldsailor35 Posted January 31, 2015 Share Posted January 31, 2015 Here on Koh Samui i see lots of Durian trees in the mountainous areas, but none on the low country. Does anyone know the reason for this and do Durian grow just as well on flat land. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soidog2 Posted January 31, 2015 Share Posted January 31, 2015 I am not a Durian expert but I do have some producing trees, I also know some commercial growers in the area. We are in Buriram; hot, dry and flat. As long as the trees have plenty of moisture, they are happy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gonsalviz Posted February 1, 2015 Share Posted February 1, 2015 They will grow well anywhere in Thailand and surrounding countries if they are taken care of. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldsailor35 Posted February 2, 2015 Author Share Posted February 2, 2015 OK., so i gather that low lying areas prone to flooding will be alright then. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Issangeorge Posted February 6, 2015 Share Posted February 6, 2015 (edited) Anyone know where I could get a durian tree in the Kalasin, Roi-et, Mukdahan area? Edited February 6, 2015 by Issangeorge Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kickstart Posted February 7, 2015 Share Posted February 7, 2015 Anyone know where I could get a durian tree in the Kalasin, Roi-et, Mukdahan area? I got one from our local Dar-Lart-Nut, our local weekly market only 100 baht, there will be one near you ,or if you have a local agricultural show they will have one . ask around for a local nursery.

cornishcarlos Posted February 7, 2015 Share Posted February 7, 2015 Don't think they like flood prone land. Lots of water yes, but drainage too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Issangeorge Posted February 8, 2015 Share Posted February 8, 2015 Thank you kickstart, around here they grow lemon trees in concrete pipes for planting in, could you do the same for a durian tree, and do you need more than one for pollination?

Management,the missus, says Durian's will grow in to big trees,,a bit like mangoes,so that would rule out pots/ pipes she says you would need more than 1 ,for pollination,but I would check with Google. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
