buy kaffir lime tree
Enhance your home garden and your cooking adventures when you buy kaffir lime tree specimens from our New Zealand nursery. The Kaffir lime (Citrus hystrix) is a citrus variety renowned for its aromatic leaves and distinctively bumpy green fruit. Both are culinary treasures: the leaves are a staple in Thai, Indonesian, and other Southeast Asian cuisines, adding a fragrant citrus tang to curries, soups, and salads. The zest and juice of the fruit can also be used in traditional recipes and homemade cleaning solutions. Perfect for container growing or directly in the garden, the Kaffir lime thrives in our climate and offers a wonderful way to add an exotic edge to your culinary endeavours.

Makrut Lime
The 'Kaffir' Lime is a quick-growing and compact shrub that produces unusual-looking fruit. The fruit is green, warty, and inedible due to the thick rind, lack of juice, and bitter taste. This evergreen shrub typically grows to 3 m tall and the same wide, and can be trimmed as necessary. The 'Kaffir' Lime is commonly included in a mixed planting or maintained either in a container or in a courtyard garden.
