Enjoy a taste sensation with echoes of the Mediterranean with this Citrus ?Key Lime? Tree. Grow fruit with a simply sublime flavour, even better than your everyday supermarket limes.
Ideal for patio pots and smaller garden spaces, this compact variety boasts evergreen bushy foliage, dainty white flowers with yellow centres through summer, followed by the prized aromatic fruit from the end of summer and into autumn. Fruits emerge slightly smaller than other varieties, up to 6cm or so across, but just as packed with flavour, notably tart in taste.
Pick ?Key Lime? fruit from the tree while they are still green and before they ripen to yellow. It?ll be no surprise that this is the centrepiece variety used in delicious Key Lime Pie recipes enjoyed across the pond, in America!
This variety is easy to grow and will thrive outside in conditions down to -5C. Keep it outside through much of the year before moving it inside for winter protection.
