Lychee Bloom Jamaica (Florida?)
« on: December 28, 2016, 08:38:20 AM »






Currently in Jamaica for the holidays...this 30+ year old lychee trees (and many others) blooming like crazy in central Jamaican Highlands, apparently this tree produced 1200 pounds last season ...wondering if our Florida trees have started ?
always longing for a JA Julie

Hi. Where in Jamaica was tree? Are both pitures of same tree? If so tree looks small for 30 years old. (Judging by minivan beside it)

I suspect this is Mandeville, in Manchester Parish. You can check out the climate data for this town by drilling down on Jamaica in Google Maps at this link: www.iplantz.com/plant/969/litchi-chinensis.

I know Mandeville well. Went to high school there and is where most lychee trees are in central Jamaica.
