Genesis

Many of my Longana euphoria trees are "with child" starting about now. This has been eagerly anticipated after three long unproductive years! I have tried to learn the fruiting pattern of these longan trees, and have concluded that in this sub-tropical climate, it is critically dependent on the cold fronts sweeping through Miami in November and December. This time, they were just right. The result is spectacular: each and every branch of all the trees are loaded with new growth, the spherical looking germination among the new leaves will become the longan fruits. These fruits are named euphoria for good cause. Wait until you eat a large load of them to feel the effect. The fruits are ready during June - July of this year.

The Beginning
