Article: Go ahead and choose a few of the lovely round fruits and save the brown seeds inside. Lychee fruit will be available during the typical lychee season, usually throughout May, June, and July in the Northern hemisphere. Make sure the fruit you get is fresh and completely ripe. The skin will be dark red, almost purple, and the bumps will flatten due to the amount of juice and sugar inside. Large seeds germinate better than smaller seeds. Seeds are only good for a few days once they've been removed from the fruit, so plant them right away. Don't buy lychee fruit until you're ready. There are plenty of online retailers that will ship you lychee seeds that are ready for planting. Just be aware that seeds taken from fresh fruit have a higher germination rate. Enjoy the delicious snack first, then clean off all remnants of fruit and you'll have a beautiful burgundy seed that's ready to become a tree. Get the seed wet, and then roll it gently around in the paper towel. This will remove any lingering debris. To increase the chance of germination, fill a cup or bowl with water and submerge the seed completely. After a few days, the brownish husk will begin to crack, which is a telltale sign that the seed is about to sprout. The water can be tap or bottled. Replace the water every day to maintain freshness.

What is a summary?
Buy lychee fruit from a grocery store or farmer's market. Purchase seeds online if you can't find fresh fruit. Clean the seed with water and paper towels. Soak the seed in room-temperature water for 3 days.
