If it's growing in 1000m elevation is that a sign of let’s say "cold hardiness", more that the other varieties?
These are my photos of immature fruits in the Crocker Range near Kota Kinabalu. I had to leave before they matured but my friend sent me some photos of the ripe fruit. The shell is more yellow although they seem about the same size and the flesh is thin and white. I will have to ask my friend if I can share his photos on this site.
When is this durian in season? I have been trying to get seeds for years and years, but no one ever seems to have them. I'd love to trial it in Florida. My Graveolens (orange) and Chanee have both recently survived 49 degree night temps unprotected, and I'm hoping that bodes well for them - but this one seems to have "all the right stuff" to survive here, if it can tolerate our soil.

Maybe 1 in 100 fruit has a good seed to grow. It has low smell and is much more expensive for mongthong or chanee. I have grafted tree's, no more seed now.https://www.meteoblue.com/en/weather/forecast/modelclimate/uttaradit_thailand_1605215
