Pelangi durians are often hybridized between three durian species, and this complex hybridization produces a brightly variegated fruit flesh that is even called rainbow durian.

Pelangi durian is a large fruit, with an average length of 20 to 30 cm. The shell is very hard and ranges in color from green, yellow, to brown with a few stripes.

Durian fruit flesh has many different colors, depending on the tree, from white, light yellow, pink, orange, to red. Pelangi durian is thick, dense, slightly sticky and creamy, with flat seeds of moderate size. Pelangi durian has a sweet, spicy taste.

Pelangi durian is very nutritious. The red pigment in durian flesh helps protect the body against the harmful effects of free radicals.

The fruit is also a good source of beta-carotene and vitamin C, an antioxidant that can reduce inflammation, improve skin and strengthen the immune system.

In addition to vitamins, Pelangi durian contains minerals, including copper, iron, calcium and potassium, which contribute to healthy organs, bones and joints.
