The Persian Lime Tree, also known as Tahiti Lime, is a popular citrus variety cherished for its abundant fruit production, robust growth, and easy maintenance. This seedless lime cultivar produces medium-sized, deep green limes that ripen to a pale yellow and are prized for their tangy, aromatic juice and smooth, thin skin. The tree features glossy, dark green foliage and a symmetrical, upright growth habit, making it both a productive fruit tree and an attractive addition to any landscape or patio. Persian Lime Trees are thornless, unlike many other lime varieties, which makes them ideal for home gardeners and container growing. When properly cared for, this evergreen citrus tree can produce fruit year-round, with peak harvests in late summer and winter. It thrives in warm climates but can also be grown indoors near sunny windows or in containers that can be moved to shelter during cooler months. Whether you're adding it to a backyard orchard or growing it on a sunny balcony, the Persian Lime Tree offers beauty, flavor, and reliability in one impressive package.
- Physical Characteristics: The tree features dense, glossy green leaves, an upright shape, and no thorns. It produces fragrant white blossoms that develop into smooth, oval, seedless limes, typically ready to harvest when the skin turns slightly yellow.
- Sunlight Requirements: Persian Lime Trees thrive in full sun, requiring at least 6–8 hours of direct sunlight per day. Choose a planting location or indoor spot with maximum light exposure to support healthy growth and consistent fruit production.
- Watering Needs: Keep the soil consistently moist but not soggy. Water deeply when the top inch of soil feels dry to the touch, adjusting frequency based on seasonal temperature changes and container size if grown indoors.
- Soil Preferences: This citrus variety prefers well-draining, sandy or loamy soils with a slightly acidic to neutral pH. Avoid heavy, compacted soils to ensure healthy root development and prevent water retention issues.
- Temperature and Hardiness: Persian Lime Trees are best suited for USDA Zones 9–11 but can be grown in containers and overwintered indoors in cooler regions. Protect the tree from frost and cold drafts, as it performs best in temperatures above 50°F.

Testimonials





Natalie"Came in perfect condition--thank you!"
Matthew"Amazing Plants! I was so happy to see these way larger than the plants pictured because I know how slow most cycads grow."
Nathaniel"This is the first time I've ever ordered plants online, so I had no idea what to expect. When I saw the description of 'comes in a 4" growers' pot' I figured I'd be getting some fairly small plants--nope! The bamboo palms were fully 2' tall from root to top leaf, and perfectly healthy. All 5 plants were VERY well secured in their box, to the point that the bottom layer was even spray-foamed to the cardboard! I couldn't ask for a better experience and I'm so excited to see these plants grow. Five stars!"
Trisha"Thrilled with my purchase! This seller went above any beyond! The packaging was very careful, the plants are so much bigger than I expected, and I was given more than what was depicted in the item description. 10/10 all round!"
R"This is SO BEAUTIFUL! Packaging was perfect and efficient, plant was in excellent condition. I'm in love with this plant and I will definitely order more."
