Handful of lychees
Litchi chinensis (and a seed) that our former neighbors, the Martinez family, brought us from their Florida garden, along with mangoes and June plums!

Lychee – 2019JUN06:
The small, round fruit (thin, rough skin covering sweet white scented flesh around a large central stone [seed]) is delicious: Lychee is a tropical tree native to the Guangdong and Fujian provinces of China, where cultivation is documented from 1059 AD; our former neighbor grows these trees in his garden in Florida and brought some to North Carolina to give us!
