There are many varieties, although few are named. The sausage-shaped fruits
range from 22 to 50 centimeters in length and 10 to 17 cm across. The edible
arils surrounding the large seeds are yellow, orange or green in color. The
taste of the fruit is similar to the related jackfruit and breadfruit with a
hint of durian. The sweet, juicy pulp surrounds the seeds in a thick layer
between the husk and an inedible core. The green skin is thin and leathery,
patterned with hexagons that are either flat or raised protuberances like
jackfruit skin
Chempedak fritters are made by dipping arils in batter and frying in oil as
sold in the streets of Malaysia. If you have the chance to eat the aril,
remember not to swallow the seed. Just consume the flesh. The
seed which is large brown has a papery covering. When boiled the
seeds are eaten with honey or sugar. Deep fry the aril with
flour then eat with tea or coffee just like one enjoy the banana
fritters.
This is also grown and eaten in Andhra pradesh, Tamil Nadu and Kerala states of India. This is known as "Panasapandu"
in Telugu and "Chakka" in Malayalam. Cempedak fruits can be also found and
bought in Singapore. The seeds can be boiled and then peeled and eaten. They
taste very much like water chestnuts. However, some people in Singapore
mispronounce the word Cempedak. Some people call the fruit 'Jumpy Duck', or
'Jumping Duck'.

Payment
![hibiscus](http://i262.photobucket.com/albums/ii108/7_Heads/65e5c65d.gif)
We
accept online payments only through PayPal, Cash payments are only acceptable for
in-person payments and cash-on-delivery (COD). Cash payment can not be sent through the
mail.
![](http://i262.photobucket.com/albums/ii108/7_Heads/Gif%20Images/Butterfly-03-june.gif)
Please only one Paypal payment. SO THE COMBINED SHIPPING RULE WILL CAN
BE USED. Late or Multiple PayPal payments are NOT eligible for any discount.
We will ship once a week - ON or BEFORE WEDNESDAYS, because
of the special stamps needed to ship plants and cuttings to you. This can only be
done at the Dept. of Agriculture. If payments are not met before that MONDAY, your
items will be shipped the following week and lose the combined discount opportunity.
Non-paying bidders may receive negative feedback and will be reported as an unpaid item to
eBay.
COMBINED SHIPPING POLICY
INTERNATIONAL SHIPPING is not included in this offer.
INTERNATIONAL SHIPPING ON LIVE PLANTS on a case by case basis.
We will combine shipping for auctions won on the same week paid with same PayPal payment.
![](http://i262.photobucket.com/albums/ii108/7_Heads/Gif%20Images/elmodance.gif)
This policy is good for auction items bought and paid for in the week ending MONDAY.
We ship on Tuesdays.
Payment must be received
within 4 days of the auction ending.
Combined Discounts Won Auctions
![](http://i262.photobucket.com/albums/ii108/7_Heads/Gif%20Images/volcano.gif)
For 2-3 winning auctions, the combined discount is 10% of the total Shipping and Handling
charges.
For 4-7 winning auctions, the combined discount is 20% of the total Shipping and
Handling charges.
For 7+ winning auctions, the combined discount is 30% of the total
Shipping and Handling charges.
![](http://i262.photobucket.com/albums/ii108/7_Heads/f820757a.gif)
As each order is packed and prepared separately you will pay the quoted S/H charges
individually per item. If you buy the same species in that item it does calculate out the
discount (i.e.: additional items)
My stores' combined shipping is built in for same
items rather than a varied selection. Domestic S/H includes postage, USDA certification and inspection,
proper packing and delivery to Airport for prompt delivery. I can't really change any
of these. If you want one of this and one of that, it is hard to discount much as each
different species requires it's own prep, packing, then at USDA each has to be
unwrapped and inspected then repacked. USDA requires me to clean and prepare every last
piece before we drive them to the Inspection Station on the other side of the island. It
takes my wife and I, 2-3 days to pack items and get ready to ship. The whole next day we
drive around the island and get inspected (2-3 hours), then drive to the Airport Post
Office to drop off. It takes the same work with the same type item if you can understand.

LIVE PLANTS ARE PERISHABLE.
For this reason uninsurable.
When you order a plant we assume you are prepared to care for it.
Please have potting media and a container prepared for your plant
before it arrives. Shipping can be stressful on a plant, and any
mistakes that you make upon arrival can stress the plant further,
which is not good. Proper care is critical upon arrival. It is your
responsibility to know how to care for the plant.
Not every plant that I order through
the mail survives, and I am aware of that and accept the risk when I
order. This is the risk that you as the buyer accept, because there
is no way to know what kind of conditions it will endure in the trip
to your door. My responsibility ends when a live plant is delivered
to your door. Live arrival is guaranteed, eternal survival is up to
you.
Please Do NOT email me a week after potting your plant, and make a claim it
arrived damaged. From delivery confirmation, you have only 48 hours from
delivery confirmation to make any claim.
|
All claims need to be supported with
Photos of the damaged plant(s) as packed/unpacked, the box if damaged,
the packing materials and any documents. I am very reasonable and
understanding, anything can happen to small plants in transit.
The expense to send it to you is most
of your payment. To send any replacements, I try to piggy back with your next order.
Replacement is not an option for
CUSTOMS SEIZURE.
ALL OF MY ITEMS ARE SHIPPED USDA CERTIFIED WITHIN THE U.S.
- USDA and USPS fees are included in the actual cost of shipping and Handling.
Please do not leave a 1 or 2 in my detailed seller ratings for postage
fees or any reason really because I will block you from any
further purchases.
I ship items the best and least expensive option. These are
coming from Hawaii. The only thing inexpensive here in
Hawaii are my items!! I do ship all my items promptly via
best method--if you feel like the combined shipping fee is
wrong, please wait to be invoiced and check back with me-I
value your business and will work diligently to keep you
satisfied. I am very generous and reasonable with reasonable
people, just ask.

Rare Palm Seeds
Fresh Highest Quality
Seller warrants seed to be of the variety and quantity advertised.
Safe delivery is guaranteed and seeds lost or damaged during shipment will be replaced at seller's expense. Claims must be made within 7 days of shipment.
All other replacements, refunds, returns and exchanges will be made at the sole discretion of the seller.
Seed is a live product which depends on many important related grower skills such
as proper planting time, seed depth, type of soil, irrigation, proper use of fertilizers,
weed controls, fungicides, insecticides, disease free soil, and reasonable weather
conditions during the growing period. Germination is affected by such factors as
temperature, moisture content, light intensity and contamination of planting media. These
factors are totally out of the seller's control and are the buyer's responsibility and
risk. Consequentially, the seller cannot unconditionally guarantee seed to perform
properly regardless of conditions or the buyer's methods or mistakes.
