Pot Size: 200mm

Citrus Key Lime, or Mexican Lime, is a small, thorny evergreen tree with glossy, aromatic foliage and fragrant white flowers appearing in spring or early summer. It produces small, round limes with thin skin and juicy, intensely acidic flesh. Usually harvested green, the fruit turns yellow when fully ripe and is prized for its distinctive flavour, making it perfect for drinks, desserts and cooking. Easily pruned to maintain a compact size, Key Lime is ideal for smaller gardens and containers.

Soil: Prefers well-drained, fertile soil with a slightly acidic to neutral pH. It can tolerate a range of soil types, including loamy, sandy, or clayey soils, as long as they provide good drainage.
Conditions: Prefers full sun to partial shade. It requires at least 6 hours of direct sunlight daily for optimal growth and fruit production. Protect from frost or cold winds, especially during the winter months.
