Tong Seng Nursery (Karak)

Have you eaten black thorn durians before? Frankly, I have not. But now I can say that I have at least seen small plants of this variety of the king of fruit.

While passing through Karak, a town between Bentong and Mentakab in Pahang, I spotted a nursery after I exited the highway and along the main road leading into the town. It has a lot of fruit trees to offer. I stopped for a while to check them out. And black thorn durian or locally known as durian duri hitam was among them!



I spoke to the lady boss that was in the shop behind the nursery. Mrs Tong explained that the durian saplings were grafted using seedlings that served as rootstocks.
