Our Longons are finally starting to pop. Longan fruit trees germinate from the freshest seeds possible. These were soaked in water for 7 days prior to planting after harvesting directly from fresh fruits. Although the seedling may not produce fruit true to the parent plant, I’m looking forward to tasting the fruits in another six years. Ripe fruits, which have a sweet but less aromatic taste then lychee, are predominantly consumed fresh. Fruits can be preserved by canning in syrup or drying. The fruit is also known as dragon’s eye, because the opened fruit with its whitish, translucent flesh and shiny black central seed closely resembles and eyeball. The longon is widely used in Chinese herbal medicine as a febrifuge and vermifuge and is regarded as an antidote for poison. #growninhaiti #longon #dimocarpuslongon #fruit #exotic #exoticfruit #tropical #tropicalfruut #haiti #ayiti #reforestation #variety #trees #plantsomething #agroforestry #nursery #foodforest #nogmos #nopesticides #noherbicides #sprout #seedlings https://www.instagram.com/p/Bsat47GjkP6/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=x33gmoil0f4s
