The message

from Dave Poole contains these words:

Rusty, the 'Key lime' (Citrus aurantifolia) is a species of Citrus
that has small, rounded fruits with a very sharp flavour and ripens
yellow. It is a large, thorny shrub or small tree that can flower and
fruit throughout the year is conditions allow. Once picked, the
fruits start to ripen so they have a shorter shelf life than the
commercially grown 'Bearss Lime'. These are most commonly seen UK
shops since they have better keeping qualities and larger, thicker
skinned fruits that aren't as acidic or strongly flavoured as the 'Key
lime'. From a commercial perspective they are favoured because of
their more reliable cropping, relatively thornless growth and few if
any seeds.

So, Key Lime is hardy when established? And the fruits are limes as I
would understand them?

Where can I get seeds? Or better, an established whip/sapling/small
tree? (I'm not immortal, you know...)
