This is a lemon on my lemon tree, I also have orange trees and this isn't
unusual for some parts of the country, but I live in Wisconsin. I have them
potted and we take them outside in the summer and back in the house for
winter.

We have three Lemon trees an Orange a Grapefruit and a Tahiti Lime and they
all spend the non frosty months outside and the winter in our garage which
has a twin walled clear plastic roof.

Then you know how much fun it is to watch the fruit grow, we also have a
lime tree but never got anything off it yet.

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.

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.
