Must be Wahiawa, because lychee needs a lot of water and coolness. It grows well in Nuuanu too.

We have neighbors who have gigantic trees. Past several years, even though they had lychee, those dang green parrots ate ALL before they even ripened.

holy crap! Dr J gave me a big bag last month too, he wanted to trim his huge tree. He ended up with a crapload of lychee. had lychee coming out of my ears!
V, those parrots!! Awhile back I went to take pictures at the bon dance across Central Union Church and saw the parrots returning to the big tree at dusk. Had millions!!

Not my favorite. Not sure why.
Here's a question, as I don't know better. Why is the lychee soaking in water? If that's just water. -lance
Lychee costs $2.99 a pound in central NJ Asian market two days ago.
Wow, Hawaii is expensive.

Last time I had fresh lychee was years ago in the Philippines!
nice!
Aunty, me too.
Lance, I'm not really sure either, but I think it might be that the ice melted.
OMG, DDD, so cheap! My sisters would go crazy.
Izsmom, so lucky!
Susan, do they not grow on Guam?
Kat, there was one seller the other weekend whose lychee were so red they looked like strawberries!

I haven’t heard of lychees growing here. It may be too hot.
So lucky, Chet!
Mark, it was actually a nice overcast day!
Awww too bad, Susan.
