Citrus — Limello

Limello is an unusual and highly productive citrus producing juicy, almost square-shaped fruit with a sweet lime flavour and a gentle lemony finish. The thin-skinned fruit contains very few seeds and is excellent for juicing, garnishes, salads and fresh use, where its mild flavour complements rather than overwhelms other ingredients. The tree develops a naturally rounded shape and is evergreen.

Height & Width: Up to 4m x 4m
Aspect: Full sun
Soil: Well-drained, fertile soil
Harvest: Extended harvest; fruiting can occur throughout the year

Limello is self-fertile and can be grown in a large pot. It is more suited to warm conditions and has some frost tolerance, but a sheltered position protected from severe frost is recommended in cooler climates.
