Lime (Citrus limonia) Rangpur Despite its name, this intriguing citrus is no Lime at all! This no lime, in fact, it is a hybrid of Lemon & Mandarin. This unusual plant produces bright orange fruits with the sour flavour of lemons, & rich, floral perfume. The leaves are aromatic, much like Kaffir Lime leaves, & can be used in the same way to flavour curries. The prolific fruits make a superb alternative to Lime, adding a tart, citrus tang to dishes. Boasting glossy foliage & sweetly scented flowers, the Rangpur Lime makes an attractive specimen plant for the conservatory. ...

Lime Tahiti Quality homegrown limes! Do you like lime in your gin & tonic? or fancy making your own key lime pie? Why not try the delicious taste & awarding process of using your own homegrown produce. The Lime ' Tahiti' produces bright green, zesty fruits throughout the year which are juicy & delicious. It also makes an attractive feature on the patio or wherever you choose to grow, with small clusters of white flowers blossoming too. Against the glossy dark green foliage, these are stunning in themself but also produce a delightful fragrance.; The seedless lime fruits grow in abundance but can take up to a year to ripen. However, their taste is worthwhile & provide quality. If you miss the chance to pick your limes when perfectly ripe they will eventually turn yellow on the tree.; Once harvested, Limes will keep for up to 2 weeks. Lime trees are capable of surviving brief periods below 0C, but for the best result, grow in a large container & move indoors to a bright frost free position from autumn to spring. You don't need to worry about a pollination companion, because this tree is self fertile.; Propagated onto 'PS' rootstock & supplied as a large specimen bush (often in fruit) in a 5 litre pot.

Height:
250cm (78). Spread: 150cm (59).
