Also known as Persian or Bearss Lime. A medium-sized, that can easily be trained to produce stunning specimens. Easy to grow and care for, they can be grown either in a container or in the ground. They make great plants for hedging, espalier training or as specimen trees. The tree will produce fruit in its first year after planting and fruit production will increase every year. Often considered to be the best choice of Lime due to it being more cold-tolerant than other species. It is easy to grow, generally pest and disease free, and it has larger, seedless fruits that have a less acidic flavour than the Key Lime.
