The rambutan, Nephelium lappaceum L., is a popular fruit of Southeast Asia still practically unknown in the Western Hemisphere. A medium-size tree with an open structure, the rambutan produces panicles of small flowers followed by clusters of ellipsoidal fruits up to 10 cm in length. The fruits are covered by a thick skin bearing flexible protuberances. The skin is easily peeled away, revealing a whitish pulp around a central seed. The pulp is sweet to subacid, translucent, attractive, and suitable for processing. The rambutan is strictly tropical in growth requirements and needs high humidity and a long rainy season. Cultural techniques are discussed. A problem of iron deficiency, which causes chlorosis, makes establishment of seedling difficult. Improved varieties propagated by grafting are available. The rambutan would be a suitable and popular fruit for Puerto Rico and other parts of the American Tropics.

The pejibaye, Bactris gasipaes H.B.K. is an important fruit common in some areas of the American Tropics and unknown in others. It is a palm native to South American forests, and was introduced to Central America in pre-Columbian times, but is still seldom found in the Caribbean and other tropical areas. The palm has several spiny trunks that each bear several multifruited panicles yearly. The fruits contain a single seed. The trees are usually propagated from seeds, but better techniques are needed to preserve selected trees as clones. The trees are adapted to a wide variety of tropical soils and climates, and so far, few important diseases have been found. When mature,the fruits are harvested by a variety of techniques, none of which is very satisfactory. Harvested fruit is easily damaged and damaged fruits rot rapidly. Mature fruits are boiled, and the pulp is eaten fresh, made into a meal, or macerated to make a drink. The seed is also edible. The palm cabbage is also harvested, usually from old trunks that are being removed anyway.

From the orient, including India and Southeast Asia, citrus fruits have gradually encircled the globe. They have become so commonplace in the tropics and in certain regions of the temperate zone that they seem to be a part of the original landscape. Almost all species have found locales suited to their cultivation and a variety of uses. During their geographical march, the species have benn, hybridized, sometimes spontaneously and somentimes by means of man's guidance.

Excerpt from Cultivation of Neglected Tropical Fruits With Promise, Vol. 7: The Durian Many efforts have been made to introduce the durian to the Tropics of the Western Hemisphere. Because the seeds are short lived, only potted seed lings have succeeded in shipments of plants, and predictably only in the high-rainfall areas of the Americas. The first durian to fruit outside Asia was in 1894 in Dominica (lesser Antilles) from plants sent from the Kew Botanical Gardens, England These trees were the source of plants for subse quent introductions to Trinidad, J amaica, and other Caribbean islands. Today there are many fruit bearing trees in the American Tropics, especially in dooryards of knowledgeable plantsmen and in the few botanical collections of the region, such as the Lancetilla Experimental Gardens in Honduras. There are, however, no large orchards or commer cial plantings. The reception of the durian in the American Tropics has been mixed, many people spurning it at first because of its strong smell, but an increasing number of people, particularly young people, have become fond of it.
