GROWING INSTRUCTIONS
Keep the soil moist and weed-free. The tree will begin to branch out and grow faster in months 2–3. Place mulch around the base to retain moisture and protect roots. Give plenty of sunlight to encourage flowering.
Around month 4–5, the tree will start bearing fruit. Harvest when lychees turn bright red and slightly soft. Use clean scissors to cut clusters. Pick early in the morning for the freshest flavor!
When seedlings reach 15–20 cm, move them to a sunny spot in your garden or into larger pots. Water 2–3 times per week, avoid waterlogging, and apply organic compost or fertilizer once a month.
Soak lychee seeds in clean water for 12–24 hours, then plant about 2–3 cm deep in loose, well-drained soil. Keep in partial shade and water lightly each day. Germination usually begins in 7–10 days.
