A first-class Durbhungah fruit when left on the tree to ripen. When ripe they 

 require keeping for about three days before eating. This is one of the most curious 

 fruits I ever saw. They are generally ripened on the tree in small bamboo baskets, so 

 that flies and moths cannot eat them. When the basket falls the fruit is ripe. This 

 fruit is much prized, and can never be bought in the bazaars.
