Salaks fruit quite easily especially balis as they are monos. Everyone seems to put in garbage varieties when they should focus on the 3 best balis including gula pasir and boni. With S.wallichiana I got screwed over with customs in Sydney who pocketed my 3 loculed fruit seeds and the seeds picked up by friends obviously were not from 3 loculed fruit as they all turned out to be males, except for one that is. I retained my fruiting female and one male and just chopped down 8 males.Only plant sumalee or noen wong varieties of this species - proper salas.With standard S.zalacca only those from Yogyarta are the go. Golin Gray formerly from Cape Trib popped over today and expressed the opinion that they are not worth it. It is important to plant from suckers once the sexes and quality is sorted out and most important of all is to know variety.
