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.

To care for Lime Tahitian, prune lightly after flowering to maintain shape and encourage new growth. Feed with a balanced fertiliser in early spring. Monitor for pests like aphids and treat promptly. Mulch to retain moisture and suppress weeds around the root zone.
