Planting & Care

To grow lychee from seed, start by soaking the seeds in water for 24 hours to soften the outer shell. Plant them in a well-draining potting mix, burying them about 1 inch deep. Keep the soil consistently moist and warm (around 75-85°F) in a sunny location. Germination can take several weeks. Once seedlings have developed a few sets of leaves, they can be potted up or transplanted to a sunny, sheltered spot in the garden.

Lychee trees prefer full sun and regular watering, especially during dry periods. Mulch around the base to retain moisture and protect the roots. Protect young trees from frost and strong winds. With patience and care, your lychee tree will grow into a beautiful and fruitful addition to your tropical garden.
