Lycheesonline.com Reports Popularity of Tropical Lychee Fruit Growing Throughout US Markets

South Florida Farmer Provides Fresh Lychee Fruit, Trees and Essential Information on Eating and Growing Lychees

FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla., Jan. 24 /PRNewswire/ -- Lychees, those attractive and rare tropical fruit trees bearing luscious red fruit, are hard to find in the United States. Lychees originated over 2000 years ago in the low elevations of Southern China, but it wasn't until the early 1900's that a successful lychee planting occurred in the United States.

Today lychee trees remain rare to the United States, growing mostly in Florida, Hawaii and California. The lychee fruits that are harvested in the United States are sent to a handful of ethnic markets in the major northern cities, but popularity is growing fast nationwide.

To support the growing demand for lychee fruit, Bill Mee, a successful lychee farmer in South Florida, created a website providing information for those who want to find the best fresh lychee fruit, and for people interested in growing their own lychee trees or groves.

Fresh Lychee and other exotic tropical fruits can be purchased on Bill Mee's site, http://www.lycheesonline.com from May to late June, as well as wholesale and retail trees. Visitors will also find recipes, photos and an extensive library of information on lychee fruits, their varieties and origins, and much more.

Those interested in planting their own lychees will find articles on fruit development, seasonal growth, how to plant small groves, container planting, tips for producing more fruit and keeping trees healthy, and other essential information any lychee enthusiast should know.
