Citrus ‘Tahitian’ Lime Tree

Citrus aurantifolia

Tahitian Limes are probably the most popular lime tree, for a host of reasons. They’re thornless, unlike other lime varieties, and the fruit are a good size with no seeds. Limes are fantastic to have handy for cooking and making refreshing drinks.

Tahitian Lime trees will grow up to 3 meters tall, and are a good small to medium size fruit tree for limited space. They also tolerate some frost, so they do fairly well down south as long as a spot with plenty of sun is chosen. Tahitian Limes are also a popular plant for large pots.
