Wow! What a cool fruit. I have never heard of Snake Fruit before. I am going to try and locate some today at the Asian market up the street. Thank you for sharing.
it genuine from Indonesia, there are some variety with different texture and taste like salak sidempuan from North Sumatera, salak Condet from Jakarta, salak Pondoh from Yogyakarta and Salak Bali.
Wow...what kind of salak do you plant there? In Indonesia there is few famous varieties of salak, salak Bogor ( i guessed originally from Bogor and salak gula pasir ( sugar salak from Karangasem Bali) those are my favorite one. How can I have it in Los Angeles CA?
Professional Welders Snake Fruit Rum...that sounds amazing! Let us know if you make any I would love to know how it tastes. Thanks for watching our video and I'm glad you learned something new about pollinating your Salak flowers.
RobBobs Backyard Farming If you ever find the room to grow Salak please let me know...I'll send you some of our seeds.(-: It truly is one of my all time favorite exotic tropical fruits. Thanks for watching our video mate!
The soil structure for optimum growth needs to be sandy, argillaceous, and rich in organic materials. Don't know if it is sensitive or not to frost, maybe you should try experimenting with it.
All these exotic tropicals fruit are slowly hitting the market. Still slow coming. Do they have Cashew plants where your at? Haven't seen one in years.
+MsTokies We have multiple varieties of stingless bees on our property right now. Our farm manager Christian collects them from the rain forest and relocates them to our property. I would imagine a video about this in a future video. Thanks for your comment and watching our videos!(-:

Gardening With Puppies I'm not sure Paula.. next time I come back to the states I'll bring some Salak seeds and send them to you. Thanks for stopping by!
8-10 years if you plant it from seeds (vegetative). 3-5 years if you plant it from the babies (saplings) or technically known as grafting (generative). Also it will depend on the cultivar & its varieties.
I tasted this fruit in Bali earlier in the year. It is delicious. I could get enough of of it. It is a shame that it is just way too cold to grow it where I live.

it's a great fruit and very delicious, salak very cheap in Indonesia you can get 2 kilos of salak with 3$
I have a question, what kind of soul does it like to grow in? And is it more sensitive to frost.

yack f zay Yes we do have cashew plants here in Costa Rica....aren't they strange looking? Thanks for watching and leaving a comment!
Eco Oasis Yes they are strange looking.
yack f zay From outer space....
Can you grow the seeds in a home Garden in the States? (Without the male and female pollination shindig?)
Only if you grow the Salak Bali Cultivar. It is monoecious, self-pollinating
How should I grow from seeds?
have you thought about keeping singless bees? on your farm.

Since I'm moving, I won't need them but I sure do appreciate the offer.
I'm looking for my first harvest in Suriname South America
how much it takes to fruit from the seed ?
8-10 years if you plant it from seeds (vegetative). 3-5 years if you plant it from the babies (saplings) or technically known as grafting (generative). Also it will depend on the cultivar & its varieties.
3-4 years from seed,mine are 3 years and started bearing fruits
I think I tasted this fruit this taste different flavor like 🍌 🍎 etc .i keep on finding this ooh so its a snake 🐍 fruit...ook
