Durian lovers in Penang have to wait a little longer


Waiting begins: Chong showing the durian flower from one of the trees at his orchard in Balik Pulau.

BALIK PULAU: The Musang King is already in season in Raub, but durian lovers here will have to wait a little longer for the fruits to arrive as the harvesting season is expected to be delayed by one to two months.

The occasional rainfall now did not help with the flowering of the durian trees, Green Acres Orchard and Ecolodge owner Eric Chong said, adding that there was also no prolonged dry and hot period for about two weeks.
