I have lechee plan in my lawn approx five years of age but in five years there is no growth on its height and width.It was only 1.5 feet of height when bought five years back and still its same,no fruiting on it yet and no increase in height and width.Any suggestion for its growth.It is in full sunshine area.
Thanks

Can you post a picture? It will give us a better idea of what's happening.

Again, like with your other plants, how often do you water? sunlight? Is it near any other trees which might give shade? Near a wall? do you fertilize it?

This looks like a sick plant, overwatered and overfertilized perhaps. Don't fertilize futher. Most like roots have been damaged by overwatering. Do godi of the soil, and only water when soil is atleast one inch dry.

Also, how much sunlight it gets? And any other big trees nearby?

it is in full sunshine,it do have trees around but they do not give shade on it.i fertilize it with npk approx 100 grams twice a year along with couple of kg of cow menure.watered it once a week in winter and alternate days in summer
