Good heavens, that would be the size of a flying fox around here!<br /><br />I had to read up more about the lychee tree online and found it to be fascinating; there are so many plants out there I know absolutely nothing about. I so enjoy your blog where I can see gorgeous flowers and fruits and ants that taste like lemonade (if I quickly lick them!) You must be so bored reading blogs like mine that have commonplace flowers for six months and then snow, snow and more snow for the next six months. <br /><br />Thank you for sharing your incredibly rich gardening life with us!Karenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18368318730124533690noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1578069567609242972.post-10051502851863469792011-11-10T08:13:32.907+10:002011-11-10T08:13:32.907+10:00Ali,

Even canned are not too bad, although fresh is best.<br />I will be posting recipes soon, so that might inspire you!<br />Mrs Bok,<br />I agree - they are delicious.

Here our lanzones are also eaten mostly by fruit bats, and even if we wrapped the bunches, they know how to get the fruits, they are smart. Someone also suggest that we put mosquito nets but we have 4 big trees so that is impossible. We just covered a small part so we can have little share from the bats.

Aren't you just the luckiest soul to have your own tree even if you have to share with the bats. My husband was actually saying he wants to put up a bat box to attract bats to our garden.
