The Persian Lime Tree – Citrus × latifolia is a useful citrus tree loved for its juicy lime fruit, glossy evergreen foliage, fragrant blooms, and fresh citrus flavor. Persian lime is also commonly called Tahiti lime or Bearss lime, and it is the larger green lime many people recognize from grocery stores.
Persian limes are excellent for fresh lime juice, tea, water, seafood, marinades, sauces, desserts, pies, cooking, and homemade drinks. The fruit is usually picked green, has a bright tart flavor, and is often seedless or nearly seedless, making it one of the easiest limes to use in the kitchen.
This tree also adds beauty to patios, containers, edible landscapes, and sunny garden spaces. It produces fragrant white citrus blooms that attract bees and other pollinators, along with glossy green leaves and useful fruit for the home.
In North Florida and the Florida Panhandle, Persian Lime should be planted in full sun and very well-drained soil. Limes are more cold-sensitive than many other citrus varieties, so this tree is best grown in a warm, protected location or in a large container where it can be moved or covered during cold weather. A sunny patio, porch, or protected south-facing area can be a good choice for local customers.
