Delivery Information View Product DescriptionLoading...Watch our VideoDescription How to Grow More Info Delivery Reviews VideoEnjoy the delicious flavour of home-grown citrus fruits. Although they can take 12 months to mature, Lemons, Limes and Oranges are well worth waiting for. With their clusters of spring-time waxy, fragrant blossom and shiny evergreen foliage, citrus trees make perfect plants for patios and conservatories. Our trio of citrus trees are hardy down to -10 degrees and best grown outdoors from May to October, and brought inside for the winter. Height: 150cm (60") Spread: 120cm (48") Supplied as pot grown plant approx. 25cm (10") tall.Information on limes
Despatched through autumn and winter you may notice that some of the fruit on your lime tree is actually showing yellow or orange. Rest assured you have received a lime and not an orange or lemon tree.
All limes varieties and species will change from bright green to yellow and orange as they become more ripe.
The limes that are bought in supermarkets are picked very immature to both retain the acidity, firmness and green colour. The flavour will also change with age and the yellow/orange fruits will be significantly sweeter than those that are picked bright green. In addition, limes are usually sold as quite a small round fruit as they are far from fully grown. The ripe fruits are much larger.
Rest assured, if you wish to pick green fruits, you will be able to do so next year when the fruits are at an earlier stage of ripeness.Height Up to 150cm (60in)

Plant citrus trees in patio containers in a mix of ericaceous compost and neutral, soil based compost such as John Innes No. 3. Repot the plant at its original soil level and firm well into the new container. Water well and position in a frost free position in full sun.Stand citrus trees outside from May to October. Water freely in summer and mist leaves daily to increase humidity and discourage pests. Feed with citrus plant fertiliser every 2 weeks. Move plants indoors from October to a bright, frost free position (4-12°C) away from cold draughts and radiators. Reduce watering in winter but do not let the plant dry out completely. Too much or too little water may cause the fruits to drop.Seeds and garden supplies will normally be delivered within the time period stated against each product as detailed above.
