What Tree

We went to Tenom Agricultural Park two weeks ago. It was my fourth visit to the park and never been there during fruit season. If you make a visit during these time, you can eat whatever edible fruits from the gardens, as much as you can. But you can only eat them in the park, they do not sell the fruits and you can never sneak them out. No tapau-tapau.

I made new findings anyway.


Beautiful flower isn't it? It came from this weird trees. The fruits look like buah kepayang but it's not. I know because we got pokok kepayang in our orchad. My hubby made a random guess and said it's buah kelapa laut (see coconut). Haimeh?


Anybody knows what tree is this?

pokok kelapa laut lebe kurang pokok kelapa sawit, tapi dia renek jer. buah kelapa laut macam kelapa biasa, cuma size jauh lebih kecik.

i love kelapa laut. so sedap...

klu di thailand, harga 6 bijik kelapa laut siap kupas RM2.50. satu bijik bleh potong kecik kecik 8.

harga air kelapa laut kat temerloh nih, rm2.50 segelas dengan 3-4 ketul kelapa laut.

maknanya, dari sebijik kelapa laut bleh dapat 2-3 gelas air, kali dengan 6 dapat la lebeh kurang 12 gelas, modal cuma RM2.50, jual RM 30, untung RM27.50... urmmmm
