I don't know that much about them, I just enjoy them. I had a small lemon
drop off the tree so I cut it in half and put it in a glass of water and was
it ever good. So if you loose any little ones don't toss them. I have no
idea about the lime, my husband ordered all but the big orange tree out of a
catalogue. The orange tree we bought in Florida a few years ago and we have
had a few oranges off it. The rest are miniature trees.

Depends which Lime, if it's the tropical lime as grown in the West Indies,
the Key Lime, Citrus aurantifolia, then they are difficult for people like
us as they like it hot and humid but the Tahiti Lime, Citrus latifolia ,
works well in our climates. I find the lemons and the lime are the best
for using, the orange and especially the grapefruit are just fun.
