Hope this is the Lychee tree but not sure.
Posting for validation.


I think this is not Litchi because leaf of Litchi is different from this plant.


If not Litchi, could you identify the tree please?


Agree with … It looks different from Litchi inflorescence and leaves.
Let the expert to conclude.
I have no idea what plant it could be.


Could it be Avocado Tree, Persea Americana?

Appears like Duthie’s Bay Tree
