Lime Sweet - 16.5cm Pot

Sweet Lime is a unique citrus variety known for its mild, low-acid flavour and refreshing juiciness. Unlike traditional limes or lemons, the fruit has a soft, sweet taste with virtually no tang, making it ideal for those who prefer a gentler citrus profile.

The fruit is round and medium-sized, ripening to a yellow-green colour, with juicy flesh perfect for fresh eating, juicing or adding a subtle citrus note to drinks.

The tree itself is bushy and productive, developing into a reliable bearer once established. While it may have some thorns, it rewards growers with consistent crops in the right conditions.

Care & Growing Tips
Plant in full sun in well-drained soil in a warm, sheltered position.

Sweet Lime thrives in warm, frost-free climates, and protection from cold is essential, especially when young.

Water regularly while establishing, then maintain consistent moisture during fruit development for best results.

Feed with a citrus fertiliser during the growing season to support healthy growth and fruiting.

Light pruning will help maintain shape and manage size.
