Grow Your Own Delicious Lychee with a Live Plant!

Bring the taste of the tropics to your home with a Lychee Plant. This live Litchi Tree arrives at your doorstep ready to thrive, standing 7-12 inches tall in a 4-inch pot. Imagine harvesting your own juicy, sweet lychees right from your backyard or patio. This fruit tree is a delightful addition to any garden or indoor space.

The Lychee Tree is known for its lush green foliage and delicious fruit. While it thrives in USDA zones 9-11, it can also be successfully grown in containers indoors, allowing gardeners in cooler climates to enjoy its beauty and bounty. Even more, pruning will allow the tree to stay small enough for easy harvesting.

Benefits of Growing a Lychee Plant:

• Fresh, Homegrown Fruit: Enjoy the unique and refreshing taste of homegrown lychees.
• Ornamental Value: The lush green foliage adds a touch of the tropics to any space.
• Versatile Growing Options: Grow it outdoors in suitable climates or indoors in a container.
• Engaging Hobby: Gardening is a rewarding and relaxing activity.

The mature size of a Lychee Plant is typically 20-40 feet, but it can be easily pruned to maintain a smaller size suitable for container growth. This makes it an ideal choice for gardeners with limited space or those who want to bring a touch of the tropics indoors. Enjoy the beauty and the fruit of your very own Litchi Tree.
