Sweet, Heart-Shaped Fruit in Spring and Summer
Originating from the lineage of the renowned Mauritius Lychee, the Sweetheart Lychee is a remarkable subtropical evergreen that stands out with its ability to bear fruit at a very young age. This variation of Lychee has a high production of fruit with smaller seeds and juicier flesh than other varieties.
The self-pollinating Sweetheart Lychee boasts a vibrant red, heart-shaped fruit that can be harvested during late spring and summer. The outer shell cracks when fully ripe, signifying the perfect moment to indulge in the uniquely textured, grape-like flesh.
With a delightful rose scent, the Sweetheart Lychee's flavor is mild and slightly floral, complemented by subtle acidic notes reminiscent of a pear. This makes it an excellent choice for enhancing salads or enjoying fresh, straight from the tree.
Whether planted in a container for a more compact size or in the ground to achieve a larger stature, this tree adapts to various settings. Plus, it’s disease-resistant with low-maintenance care, making it suitable for any level of gardener. Grab your Sweetheart Lychee today!

Plant in great shape on arrival
Planted and growing well - love working with this company.
Perfect Lychee tree in every way
I ordered 2 Sweetheart Lychee from FGT and both were extremely healthy when they arrived. One has been growing for over 5 years and is loaded with the most exceptional delicious fruit. It survives well in Saint Augustine, FL with careful multiple layer frost protection for any freeze/frost. The fruit is huge - yet the tree stays small and compact. The taste is amazing. It is self pollinating with 1 tree. Highly recommend!
