Longan takes about 5 months from blooming to harvest. The fruits are non-climateric and have to be harvested when ripe.
They thrive in sandy, well-drained soil. In general, longan trees should be planted in full sun for best growth and fruit production. Select a part of the landscape away from other trees, buildings, and powerlines; remember, longan trees can become very large. After planting, irrigate regularly to establish.
Their preferred climate is a warm, humid summer followed by a cooler, dry winter. Some evidence suggests that areas with a number of days with minimum temperatures under 12 degrees C (54F) will produce better longan crops.. . . . .364011235733!]0000000000000009783314146227!]
