GEORGE TOWN: And just like that, the durian season is almost over. Those who have yet to satisfy their desire for creamy pungency had better hurry because the Penang Agriculture Department predicts that the fruits will have all fallen in another seven to 10 days.

“Most of the cloned durians have all dropped and only D15 is still ripening on the trees,” said the island’s area agriculture officer Ahmad Razali Abdul Razak.
