Growing Information
Light Requirements
- Lychee trees require full sun to grow and produce fruit.
- At least 6-8 hours of direct sunlight per day is needed for optimal fruiting and growth.
Soil Preferences
- Prefers well-drained, sandy loam soil with a slightly acidic pH (around 5.5 to 6.5).
- Lychee trees do not tolerate waterlogged soil, so it’s crucial to plant them in soil that drains well.
Planting Tips
- Seed Preparation: Soak the seeds in water for 24 hours to encourage germination.
- Planting Depth: Plant seeds about 1-2 inches deep in well-drained soil.
- Space for Growth: When planting multiple trees, ensure they are spaced about 10-15 feet apart to give them enough room to grow and receive proper sunlight.
Watering Tips
- Keep the soil moist but not overly wet. Water the tree deeply when the top 1-2 inches of soil feels dry.
- Lychee trees are sensitive to overwatering, so ensure proper drainage to prevent root rot.
- In drier climates, water more frequently, but reduce watering in the winter months when the tree is dormant.
USDA Growing Zones (United States)
- Best suited for USDA Zones 10-11, which include tropical and subtropical regions like Florida, California, and parts of Texas.
- Lychee trees are sensitive to frost and cold temperatures, so they are best planted in areas where temperatures do not fall below freezing.
Global Growing Zones

- Can also be grown in Mediterranean climates with proper care to protect from frost.
How to Use in the Garden
