The conservancy that I’m developing in West Delray Beach, FL, has one of the largest and best-curated palm tree collections in the world, as well as a growing collection of outdoor sculptures, a traditionally styled Japanese tea house, a stock of African cycads, and dozens of other exotic plants and trees.
This is one of them:
Lychee Tree
Binomial name: Litchi chinensis
This tropical tree is native to southeastern China. Cultivation began in 1059 AD, but it is referred to in unofficial Chinese records as far back as 2000 BC.
