The Tahitian Lime is a vigorous, evergreen citrus tree ideal for Melbourne gardens, producing juicy, seedless limes with a tangy-sweet flavour nearly year-round, peaking from late summer into autumn. It thrives in full sun and well-drained, slightly acidic soil, with regular watering especially during fruiting. Once established, it's hardy and productive, making it a standout in both ornamental and edible landscapes.

A mature tree can reach 4–6 metres high and 3–4 metres wide
