10″ Lime Bush

Lime Citrus Tree is a lively and aromatic indoor tree that brings a burst of tropical freshness into your home. Its glossy, deep green foliage and intoxicating white blossoms are beautiful on their own, but the real reward comes when bright, fragrant limes begin to develop right before your eyes. Compact, productive, and full of character, it is a plant that truly delivers.

Light: Requires plenty of bright light to thrive indoors. A south or west-facing window is ideal, as consistent, strong light encourages healthy foliage, flowering, and fruit production. The more sunlight it receives, the happier it will be.

Water: Water thoroughly when the top 1-2 inches of soil feel dry, allowing excess water to drain fully each time. Lime trees are sensitive to both overwatering and underwatering, so aim for consistent moisture without letting the roots sit in water. Scale back slightly during the winter months.

Care Tips: Feed with a citrus-specific fertilizer throughout the growing season to fuel healthy growth and fruit development. Because lime trees rely on pollinators outdoors, give the blossoms a gentle shake or a light touch with a soft paintbrush when growing indoors to help encourage fruiting. Keep away from cold drafts, air conditioning vents, and sudden temperature changes.

Placement: Best suited to your brightest windowsill, a sunroom, or a warm, well-lit conservatory. Its glossy foliage and cheerful fruit make it as decorative as it is functional, and the fresh, citrusy fragrance it releases is an added bonus that the whole room can enjoy.
