lime tree plant
A lime tree plant is a delightful addition to any New Zealand garden, offering fragrant blossoms, lush green leaves, and zesty limes for culinary use. Whether you're looking to brighten your backyard, create a productive edible garden, or add architectural interest, a lime tree plant suits a wide variety of climates and gardening styles. Growing your own lime tree plant means enjoying homegrown limes for drinks, desserts, and savoury dishes, as well as benefiting from its compact size and evergreen beauty.
Lime Tahitian
The 'Tahitian' Lime is a popular and quick-growing shrub that bears masses of medium-sized fruit that are juicy, strongly scented, and have that typical lime flavour. They begin green in summer and ripen to pale yellow in winter. This heavy-cropping, evergreen typically grows to 3 m tall and the same wide, but can be trimmed as necessary. 'Tahitian' Limes are commonly included in a mixed planting or maintained either in a container or in a courtyard garden.
