LIME TAHITIAN 165MM

The Tahitian Lime is a popular small, spreading evergreen tree with glossy green leaves, occasional thorns, and fragrant creamy-white blossoms that appear from late summer into early autumn. These are followed by medium-sized, round green fruit with a thin skin and juicy, nearly seedless, acidic flesh - perfect for juicing, desserts, cocktails, or adding zest to Asian dishes. Pick the limes in winter before they turn yellow for the best flavour.

This attractive citrus variety makes an excellent feature tree for pots, courtyards, decks, or smaller Mediterranean-style gardens. It thrives in a sunny spot with well-drained soil, and prefers regular watering in summer, with low water needs in winter.

Care Tips:

• Protect from strong winds, especially during flowering and fruit set 
• Fertilise through the growing season
• Grows approx. 3–4m tall and wide
• Fruit production begins around year 3; early fruit may be small or less flavourful as the tree establishes

A beautiful and practical addition to any edible garden!
