NOTE ABOUT 2023 LYCHEE SALE
Due to limited lychee production during the last 2 seasons and overall cost increases across the board (labor, fertilizer, shipping material, and shipping charges) our prices will be higher than previous years. Additionally a large number of our lychee trees have been trimmed due to the Erinose mite which is affecting many lychee orchards in Florida. This has further affected the production of lychee. We will periodically update our web page for available quantities.
To ensure the highest quality our lychees are picked the same day. All shipments are sent overnight via Fedex - Monday through Wednesday. Orders received after Tuesday will be shipped the following week. To ensure freshness, we use insulated material with ice pack on all our shipments (for more information - view our shipping section)
Thanks to all of you who continue to support us! We are looking forward to seeing some of you this year and in the future.
Sincerely,
Naga Gardens
About Lychees
Lychee is a subtropical fruit originating in South China. The lychee fruit is about 1½ to 2 inches in size, with bumpy red skin and an oval to rounded heart-shape. Once the peel is removed, the flesh of lychee fruit is white or pinkish, translucent and glossy like the consistency of a grape. Lychee fruit is high in the antioxidant Vitamin C and essential mineral Potassium
Frequently-asked questions (FAQ)
In the South-Florida region—where we grow our lychees—the season is from late May to early July.
Which lychees varieties do you grow?
Brewster lychees, Mauritius lychees, and a limited quantity of Sweetheart lychees. The majority of what we grow are the Mauritius variety.
The Sweetheart lychees we grow are currently only sold locally and for an additional cost. We may offer these online in the future.
Can I pick lychees myself at the farm?
More frequently-asked questions
That's right. This ain't no grape. You can't just pop ‘em. You gotta peel them, but like everyone else who has tried lychee, you are going to soon start to wonder how do I get as many of these things inside my mouth as fast as humanly possible?
The trick is to not peel the whole thing—just peel off half the shell. Then use the other half as a holder, and bring the lychee to your mouth, then squeeze. Yum. Now do that 500 more times.
NOTE: Definitive how-to-eat-a-lychee video coming soon.
Can you freeze lychees?
Absolutely! You can put them in a ziplock freezer bag and toss them in the freezer. They will stay good for 6-12 months. When you are ready to eat them, let them thaw and then enjoy.
What else can you do with lychees?
How about trying Lychee Ceviche served at our favorite restaurant STAGE Kitchen & Bar in Palm Beach Gardens.
