New leaves on the lychee! It’s a slow grower but definitely seeing progress. I’m getting more and more excited as new fruits are starting to form in the yard. Native to southern China where the lychee has been cultivated for at least 3,000 years. The tree was praised and pictured in Chinese literature, with the earliest known record in AD 1059. Lychee is a great source of Vitamin C and Polyphenols. There are more then 40 cultivars differing in skin color and texture, fragrance, flavor, form of seeds, and even color of flesh. ・・・ #growninhaiti #lychee #litchiChinensis #edible #haiti #ayiti #reforestation #foodforest #agroforestry #preservation #diversity #foodsecutiry #seedsovereignty #vintamin #beneficial #hardwood #growth https://www.instagram.com/p/B63TEEpFd12/?igshid=1wi1s34iribzb
