Hiya GT, good question. lol
We long ago gave up on lychees and such like, too high, too many predators. But this pulasan, because it was along the boundary, we let grow, and it sure did. It flowers at times but I can't recall a crop. Heck, I'm not even sure it's a pulasan though it does have lighter leaves, yet a stalk of flowers similarly, so not a lychee., I got it when the Rare Fruit Council was active in Mossman long years ago. Was painful to have partner chainsaw while carrying some flowers but figgered it might come back with renewed vigour. So I guess that's no answer to you at all!.

Sitting here with cold feet - but if that's all the winter we're going to have I'm very grateful for the rains to this point. When we arrived here in 1987 I was shocked to find we have usually quite a long period of dry between July-November and while we have always an ample supply of water it got real boring keeping fruit trees watered. Disturbing were the cracks in the ground that developed with contraction and while only slightly crisp underfoot in the lawns not nearly as dry as back across the river.

I always had the impression the tropics got afternoon showers all year round like Florida etc, haha. No such luck, so each dry we're all wondering if fires are going to break out, hence keeping Sentinel in my bookmarks. A couple have come close but I was told the canopy is always too moist to really take off - I hold that thought.

See, asking me a question I tend to babble, you'all are forewarned.
