Also known as the Tahiti lime tree, this tree produces the limes most commonly found in grocery stores. The thick-skinned fruit is about the size of a lemon and has a tart flavor that goes great in food and drinks. Unlike lemons, this citrus tree does not have large thorns on its stems, making it more pet friendly as a houseplant.

Although this tree is more cold-hardy than other citrus trees, it thrives in warm temperatures and is heat tolerant, but it can be grown indoors near a sunny window in cooler climates. Be sure to provide your Persian Lime Tree with sufficient water, as this tree’s moisture content is exceptionally high for fruit production. We recommend thoroughly watering this tree at least once a week and allowing it to drain fully.

The Persian Lime Tree is a flowering fruit tree that thrives, producing fruit all year long, although it usually matures in the fall. It is self-pollinating and proves to be relatively easy to grow. The edible and versatile fruit is perfect for many recipes and pairs nicely with our Meyer Lemon Tree.
