Plant Description

The Citrus aurantiifolia var. limetta, commonly known as sweet lime or limetta, is a medium-sized citrus tree that can reach a height of 130–150 cm (4–5 feet). It features glossy, dark-green leaves and fragrant white flowers, which develop into small to medium-sized, round or oval fruits with a smooth, yellow-green rind. The fruit has a juicy, slightly sweet flavor, less acidic than regular limes, making it perfect for culinary and ornamental uses. This attractive tree thrives in well-lit spaces and is ideal for gardens, patios, or indoor cultivation.
