Common Names: Sri Chompoo Longan, Pink Longan
Family: Sapindaceae
Origin: Thailand
The Sri Chompoo Longan (Dimocarpus longan) is a highly sought-after variety of longan known for its exceptionally sweet flavor, juicy flesh, and unique pinkish hue. Originating in Thailand, the Sri Chompoo Longan is cherished for its larger fruit size, almost translucent flesh, and high-quality taste. This tropical fruit tree is perfect for home gardeners who want to enjoy the exotic flavors of the tropics right in their backyard.
Distinctive Features and Uses
Fruits: Sri Chompoo Longans are small to medium-sized, with a thin, light brown shell that is easy to peel. Inside, the flesh is juicy, sweet, and almost translucent, with a slight pinkish tint that gives this variety its name. The flavor is rich and sweet, often compared to lychee but with a more subtle, honey-like taste. The fruit is perfect for fresh eating, adding to fruit salads, or using in desserts where its delicate sweetness can shine. Sri Chompoo Longans are also great for drying or preserving, extending their enjoyment beyond the fresh fruit season.
Leaves: The tree features glossy, dark green leaves that are evergreen, adding a lush, tropical appearance year-round. The foliage is dense, providing ample shade and a beautiful canopy in the garden.
Growth Habit: Sri Chompoo Longan trees are vigorous and can grow up to 30-40 feet tall in optimal conditions, though they can be pruned to maintain a more manageable size. The tree is highly productive, often yielding an abundant harvest in late summer to early fall.
