Durian pictures (introduction to morphological characteristics and maintenance methods)

1. Morphological characteristics

1. Leaves: The leaves are oblong, 10 to 15 cm long and 3-5 cm wide. Both sides are shiny and the top is relatively smooth.

2. Flowers: The flowers are clustered on the stems and branches, drooping naturally, with up to 30 flowers blooming in an umbel. The flower buds are spherical, with yellow-white petals that turn outward after opening.

3. Fruit: The fruit is oval in shape, mostly light yellow, but also yellow-green. It can grow up to 30 cm in length and the flesh has a strong odor but is edible.

2. Maintenance methods

1. Temperature: Durian has extremely high requirements for temperature, which generally cannot be lower than 22℃. High temperatures help the growth and development of durian, making it fuller.

2. Watering: Durian is drought-resistant and does not need to be watered too frequently. Depending on the dryness or wetness of the soil, keep it slightly moist. In addition, the frequency of watering should be reduced during the growing season.

3. Fertilization: It is advisable to fertilize durian three times a year. Fertilize when flower buds appear in spring to provide them with sufficient nutrients so that good flowers can produce big fruits. Fertilizing during the summer when the fruit is developing will help the fruit to expand. You can also apply fertilizer before picking the fruit to add nutrients to the plants.
