Description
The Persian Lime Tree produces juicy green limes with a bright, tart citrus flavor. The fruit grows about 2 to 3 inches wide and is great for drinks, cooking, baking, and sauces. Glossy green leaves add beauty to patios and sunny indoor spaces. This popular citrus tree also grows well in containers, making it easy to move indoors when cold weather arrives.
Grow your Persian Lime Tree in full sun to partial shade and well-draining soil. Keep the soil evenly moist, but never soggy. This lime tree prefers temperatures between 60°F and 80°F with moderate humidity. Bring it indoors when temperatures turn cold. Place it in a bright spot with plenty of light when growing it indoors.
