What kind of lychee is it with small seeds and lots of flesh?

Gualü: It is named because the shell is 40% green and 60% red, and each has a circle of green lines. According to Guangdong Xinyu, Gualü is "crisp like a pear, the juice is gone, and it remains unchanged for three days after the shell is removed." Zengcheng Gualü has always been a tribute to the emperor. It is said that during the Qianlong period, the people of Zengcheng cut down hundreds of Gualü trees because they could not bear the annual tribute. Only one mother tree remains in the Gualü Garden in Zengcheng Lychee Town, called "Xiyuan Gualü". Xiyuan Gualü still bears fruit every year. In 2001, a Xiyuan Gualü lychee set a world record for the "most expensive fruit" at an auction.

Guiwei: It has the flavor of osmanthus, and the flesh is refreshing and sweet. The peel is light red, and the cracks on the skin are sharp and prickly, and the skin is thin and crisp; the core has a normal large core, and there are also degenerate burnt cores. There is a kind of Guiwei called "Duck Head Green", which has dark green spots and is a special variety.

Nuomici: The fruit is thick, juicy, and sweet like honey. The peel is bright red, thin, and has no peaks. The core is small, and some are even degenerate into a coreless fruit.
