Around the plantation

Nutmeg being dried in the sun. The red membrane is known as "Nutmeg flower" although it is not the real flower but a membrane covering the seed. It has medicinal properties so it is often used to make medical oilment.

Soursop is another local favourite


Pineapples were growing everywhere around the plantation. According to the owner, they need a lot of fertilizer after flowering in order to produce big fruits.

There were 2 or 3 huge mangosteen trees which produced lots of mangosteen.


These were the unriped Duku Langsat!!
