The finest of all varieties, premier choice by dooryard growers for its reliability and superior quality. It has huge, heart shaped, juicy fruit with very small seed.
You've eaten Lychee no doubt in Chinese restaurants. Under the brittle crimson skin, the flesh is pearly white, sweet and jelly-like, though firm. It is eaten fresh or sun-dried (Litchi Nuts) or canned in syrup. It is a good source of vitamin C and phosphorous.
Sweetheart is very similar to Hak Ip variety, some growers claim they are one the same variety only from different producers.
