General Description
Lime (Citrus aurantiifolia), also known as Key Lime, Mexican Lime, West Indian Lime, Tahiti Lime, or Persian Lime, is a small citrus fruit known for its tart, refreshing flavor and high vitamin C content. It is widely used in culinary dishes, beverages, and desserts around the world. Native to Southeast Asia, limes are now cultivated globally in tropical and subtropical regions.
Plant Characteristics
Lime trees are small, evergreen, and bushy, typically reaching 3–5 meters in height. The glossy green leaves and fragrant white flowers make them an attractive addition to home gardens.
