Post by sirtcp »

OK this is my first post in this forum.
i want add few Lychee grapefruit plant to my garden (karachi) actually i have grown few from seends but after lots of research if learn that plant from their seeds will not produces good fruit. so i want to buy few lychee and grapefruit plant pots. but unfortunately i tried everywhere in karachi but i didnt got one therefore please suggest me where could i find Lychee grapefruit plants. i think climate is normally hot but citrus fruits like lemon and lime can be grown very easily in Karachi so i hope it will work for both plants.
Any suggestion or help ?

Thank you.

Grape fruit from seed is almost always true.
Leechi from seed may not be true and willtake long time to fruit. Air layered are freely available in Lahore and so should be in Karachi.

Always grow grafted plants! Lychee from seed never comes true to the type.Brigd sb is very right air layred plants are readily availble in spring in PUNJAB & NWFP.But remember purchase from a well reptable nursery.Surahee is the best choice.grafted grape fruits(both varities) are also avible very easily in spring.

Any idea on where to get lychee in Karachi? :)

I went to a nursery after sifting through a couple. He had a small plant with yellow leaves and whiteflies and said 1200! :shock: .. argued he went down to 950 but still :shock:
