Plant Care Guide

Ideal Plantation Locations

Longan trees thrive in warm, subtropical climates with ample sunlight. They prefer well-drained, fertile soil with a slightly acidic to neutral pH. Suitable regions include USDA hardiness zones 9-11.

Planting & Gardening Instructions

1. Location: Choose a sunny location with at least 6 hours of direct sunlight per day.
2. Soil Preparation: Amend the soil with organic matter such as compost or well-rotted manure to improve drainage and fertility.
3. Planting: Plant the seedling at the same depth it was growing in the nursery pot. Gently firm the soil around the base.
4. Spacing: Allow 15-20 feet between trees for optimal growth and fruit production.

Watering

Water deeply and regularly during the first growing season to establish a strong root system. Reduce watering frequency as the tree matures, but ensure the soil remains consistently moist.

Fertilizers

Fertilize your Longan tree with a balanced, slow-release fertilizer in spring and summer. Avoid over-fertilizing, as it can damage the roots.

Repotting Instructions

Re-pot young seedlings annually into slightly larger containers using well-draining potting mix. Repotting frequency will decrease as the tree matures.

Fruiting Season

Longan trees typically begin fruiting 3-5 years after planting. The fruiting season varies depending on the climate, but generally occurs during the summer months.
