Lychee - Bosworth 3NickL1's Edible FruitsUpdate: 3802 days 1hrs Comments: - Sweet juicy fruit Planted: 2013 Height 1 metres Growing: In the Ground Qty: 1 Sun/Shade: Full Sun When I Fertilise: Never Was this review helpful? Yes | No | Report 2 of 6 people found this review useful CommentsNickL1 says... [3802 days 1hrs ago]Bought it early 2013 from Daleys. Planted it in a pot but due to excessive watering, the plant was slowly dying. Decided to plant it in the ground in October 2013 and now nearly two month later, it is looking rather pathetic. It still has some green leaves and I am afraid it wouldn't make it in the colder winter months.NickL1 says... [3487 days 24hrs ago] Two more months and this tree will be one year old altho I don't think it will make it. All the leaves are gone and only the stump, which is about 18 inches, remain. I know the tree is still alive, the stump is green, but dont know how much longer it will last. Hopefully with spring and the summer months coming, it will sprout some leaves :(.NickL1 says...
