The Bearrs Lime has a mysterious past, sometimes being thought of as identical to the Thaiti lime. The tree varies in that it is more erect and larger than the Thahiti lime.
The Key Lime (Mexican Lime) is the most aromatic of the limes and is often used for dessets (key lime pie), marmalades, and garnishes. The tree is medium to large size and extremely thorny.
The Rangpur Lime is about the size of a clementine with a bright orange rind when mature. It is likely a hybrid between a mandarin and a rough lemon and produces a fruit that is highly acidic and bitter with a deeply floral, honeysuckle aroma.
We suggest watering once a week, deep and thoroughly. Make sure to build a basin about a foot from the trunk (or further depending on the tree size) This will act as a birm to catch the water, ensuring the entirity of the trees roots are getting water to them and its draining deep enough down.
The Sweet Lime is a lime with practically no acidity. They start off green but then turn yellow- often getting them confused for lemons. Similar to the sweet lemon they can be eaten right off the tree without causing any puckering. They also are known to soothe many illnesses, such as throat infections, nausea, and fevers. This is because it is high in vitamin C and dietary fiber.
