Last year I planted a couple of lychee stones just to see what would happen.
One of them germinated and grew two pairs of leaves. Then nothing. About six
weeks ago, i.e. one year later, it grew another pair of leaves. I'm growing
it as an indoor plant. Has anyone grown them? Is it destined to grow only
one pair of leaves a year?? Admittedly very nice leaves!

I grew some a few years ago, but lost them in a very cold winter spell when the
heating failed in the GH. They were indeed not fast growing....But they grow
into rather large trees in their native environment!
