Description
Bring a touch of the tropics to your indoor garden with the Limequat Tree, a unique hybrid between a kumquat and a key lime. Known for its compact size and vibrant, tangy fruit, this versatile tree is ideal for Massachusetts homes, thriving indoors during cold weather and transitioning outdoors in warmer months. Its glossy green foliage and small, fragrant blossoms make it as decorative as it is productive.
Caring for a Limequat is simple—provide bright, indirect sunlight and keep it sheltered from the cold. When spring arrives, move it outside to enjoy the warmth until cooler fall weather sets in. Perfect for container growing, this citrus hybrid brings year-round charm and fresh fruit to your space.
