Litchi (Litchi chinensis) belongs to the family of Sapindaceae. The plant is a dense, symmetrical, evergreen tree with a dark brown trunk. The tree has erect or drooping branches, depending on the cultivar. The plant can live for many years, and grows to 612 m in height. It is rich in iron, copper, manganese, phosphorus, and magnesium, which improve bone and heart health. Lychees are a rich source of numerous antioxidant-plant compounds, including epicatechin and rutin, which help protect against oxidative stress, chronic diseases, cataract, diabetes, heart diseases, and cancers. Lychee trees are best planted at least 30 feet away from your home, other major structures, or other trees in your home landscape. Planting them too close can impact their growth and fruit harvest, particularly if they are shaded. If you are in an area prone to flooding, planting the tree on a mound of soil can help to ensure water runoff. Lychees dislike wet feet. Plant a lychee tree in a full sun location that is protected from wind, because this tree can be susceptible to wind damage. Spring planting, after any frosts have passed, is best. Lychee is a tropical broadleaf evergreen tree native to China, where it grows in a warm, humid climate. Although grown commercially for its fruit, in landscapes it is often used as a shade tree or a specimen fruit tree.
