The longan belongs to the Sapindaceae family and is a subtropical evergreen fruit tree. It originated in mainland China, and its cultivation history in Taiwan, China is very early. It was already recorded in works such as the "Zhuluo County Gazetteer" in the 55th year of the Kangxi reign of the Qing Dynasty. It was brought over for cultivation when people from Fujian and Guangdong migrated to Taiwan, China. Although the longan cultivated in Taiwan, China was introduced from mainland China, because of its wide adaptability, strong reproductive capacity, and easy cultivation management, it has developed into the most localized economically cultivated fruit tree in Taiwan, China.
