Good post @zulabrar
I think this is a typical fruit from the region of Aceh, right?
I really like with this fruit, but rarely we can because the fruit is seasonal, so had to wait a year used to be the longest. because fruit is usually the fastest bear fruit twice a year.
Thank you its very useful post.
