What did you harvest recently? Post photos if you like, and brag about what you grew or foraged.

Yeah I wouldnt expect the elevation to be an issue? I’ve always found it growing at sea level/ warm climates. My understanding is that it can’t withstand cool temperatures. Its for a friends farm, but we don’t expect fruits for decades.
In order to flower well, longan usually needs a “winter” season with min temps <12°C and/or less rain. While fruiting, hot and wet is best. At sea level in the tropics, the low temps usually don’t occur, and even if the winter is dry enough for longan to flower (but not dry enough to kill it), the other half of the year usually doesn’t get as hot as subtropical summers, so the fruits might not develop properly. Either you have a strange tropical breed of longan, or you are very lucky to have the right conditions where you live.
