Kunemikhiqizo engaphezu kwama-100 ye-lychee, futhi imikhiqizo emisha iqhubeka nokuphuma unyaka nonyaka.
Manje isikhathi sokujabulela ama-lychee ngokusemthethweni. Inani elikhulu lama-lychee litholakala emakethe. Izitolo ezinkulu, izitolo zeziqhamo, kanye nabathengisi basemgwaqweni bonke bakhulumela ama-lychee amasha, ngezisho ezikhangayo ezifana "Akudingeki ukhokhe uma engathandi" nezintengo ezihlukahlukene ukusuka phezulu kuya phansi.
Litchi (igama lesayensi: Litchi chinensis Sonn.) ingeyomndeni we-Sapindaceae kanye nezinhlobo ze-Litchi. Iyi-wood evergreen, cishe imitha eyi-10 ukuphakama. Isikhumba somkhiqizo sinezikhala eziphakamisayo, sikhanya okubomvu nokubomvu okuphaphathekile. Lapho iphumelele ngokuphelele, iba okubomvu okukhanyayo; imbewu zonke zifihlwe ngempahla ye-false seed coat. Isikhathi sokukhula siba ntwasahlobo kanti isikhathi sokukhiqiza siba ehlobo. Lapho ikhulile, inyama yomkhiqizo ibonakala icacile futhi iyajuluka, inombala opholile futhi inambitheka kahle, kodwa ayifanele ukugcinwa.
Itholakala eningizimu-ntshonalanga yeChina, kuhlanganisa iYunnan, iGuizhou, iSichuan neChongqing, kanye nezindawo eziseningizimu ezifana neGuangxi, iGuangdong neHainan, kanye nezindawo eziseningizimu-mpumalanga ezifana neFujian, iZhejiang neTaiwan. Iphinde ikhuliswe engxenyeni eseningizimu-mpumalanga ye-Asia. Kukhona amarekhodi okwenziwa kwayo e-Afrika, eMelika nase-Oceania.

Litchi imnandi, inamathoni amnandi, futhi inobushushu. Iphuma emithanjeni yenhliziyo, isikhumba kanye nezinso. Ingavimba ukuhlekwa nokuhlanza. Iyi-therapi yokudla ephakeme kubantu abane-hiccups eziqinile kanye nokuhlanza kobusuku. Ngasikhathi sinye, inemiphumela yokunisela ubuchopho, ukukhuthaza ukuzivocavoca, ukuheha isifiso sokudla nokusiza isikhumba. Ngenxa yobushushu bayo, ukudla ngokweqile kungaholela kalula ekushiseni okweqile.

Izici zomfanekiso Isaziso

Ithuba linjengile, umgogodla omkhulu unombala ompunga-brown futhi uhlelekile. Amagatsha ahlukanisiwe futhi alide, anethemba lokukhula phezulu. Amagatsha anonyaka owodwa anombala ophuzi-brown onemibala emhlophe-ompunga, anama-lenticels anjengezindandatho, cishe anemumo ejikelezayo. Amagatsha aphakathi kokuphuka futhi alula. Izikhala zamahlamvu zifushane, zinciphile, futhi ziqinile kancane, zilinganisa u-8.0 centimeters ubude. Ingxenye ephezulu inombala omnyama-brown onokukhanya okuncane komhlophe, ingxenye engezansi inombala obrown-oluhlaza, futhi ama-axils amahlamvu aphakathi kokuncane. Kukhona ama-pair amancane ama-2 kuya kwama-3, aphikisana noma aphikisana kakhulu. Amahlamvu anemumo ende ye-elliptical, anamaphuzu amafushane, isisekelo sikhulu futhi sinemumo ye-wedge, silinganisa u-7 kuya ku-9 centimeters ubude no-2.5 kuya ku-3.8 centimeters ububanzi. Imikhawulo yamahlamvu ijolile ngaphakathi noma iyancipha kancane, inemithambo emincane futhi ethambile; imithambo eyinhloko imincane, imithambo yangasese ihlukanisiwe futhi ayicacile; ihlathi liphakathi kokukhuluphala, luhlaza futhi lukhazimula; izikhala zamahlamvu ziqinile, zinezigaba ezishisayo, ingxenye ephezulu inombala obomvu-brown, kanti ingxenye engezansi inombala oluhlaza-brown.

Iphunga leziqhamo linobude obungu-23.0 centimeters, amagatsha ezimbali thin futhi ahlukanisiwe, ahlukaniswe, anombala ophuzi-oluhlaza, anezinwele ezincane, kanti i-axis yezimbali inezinhlamvu ezingacacile. Izimbali zamadoda zikhulu, zilinganisa u-1.1 centimeters ukuphakama no-1.0 centimeter ububanzi. I-stalk yezimbali inobude obungu-4.0 millimeters, ama-sepals anombala ophuzi-oluhlaza, anama-lobes ama-5, anezinwele ezimfushane nezincane ezimnyama. Kukhona ama-stamens angu-6 kuya ku-8, ngokuvamile angu-7, anezinhlaka zezimbali ezingu-4.6 millimeters ubude, izinwele zifushane futhi ziningi, ama-anthers akhulu, i-disk yezimbali inobubanzi obungu-2 kuya ku-4 millimeters, ophuzi-oluhlaza; i-flower ye-ntombazane incishisiwe futhi kuphela izimpawu ezisele; ububanzi obuphakeme bungu-8.7 millimeters, ububanzi obuphakathi bungu-6.7 millimeters, i-stalk yezimbali inobude obungu-4.0 millimeters, i-ovary inombala ophuzi-oluhlaza, i-stigma ifushane futhi ihlukaniswe kancane, anezinwele ezincane nezifushane, futhi kukhona ama-stamens angu-6 aphukile.
