Fruiting Durian in Florida

Kind of fruit tree:

Durian

Why this fruit tree is unexpected:

Ultra-tropical, hardly anyone tries to grow it

Grow Notes:

There are folks who struggle to grow durian in even more southern tropical climate; common belief has been that it’s the climate that’s the issue, but it seems more an issue of soil

If anyone can find this grower, check their growing practices

(This is an approximate location, apparently the tree is on Pine Island somewhere)

My friend Vittorio has been picking from these fig trees in August for several years. He nicknames one “rattlesnake tree” based on a story of a time he was there; he has stories of the changes of yield and quantity over fluctuations of weather and land management strategies.
