I noticed while taking many photos today that my Sweetheart lychee had flower buds on the ends of all the branches. It should flower in January or February if given enough water. It needs to be kept very wet. Photo taken December 19, 2024

I like lychee fruit as well but it is not always available here.
Only occasionally.

I love lychee, too! It’s expensive here.
I like longan better, though. I can eat many pounds of it. 😂

We're lucky that lychees are available in our supermarkets here six months of the year and at fairly reasonably prices as well.

Yes, you’re lucky. It’s only available spring and summer here. It’s expensive, usually $5 to $6 a pound.
Local trees produce fruit from July through October here, depending on the variety.

One of my favourite fruits. We eat a lot of them at Christmastime.
