Lime Plant update

Remember the lime plant that I bought 2 months ago? It is very productive and it keeps on producing lime fruits. Oh yeah, its fragant flowers have been attracting butterflies and its larvaes and I had to hand pick them. What a job! :D

I think one of the limes is ready to be picked.

Can you count the number of the fruits?

Lime Plant

I bought a lime plant (keylime?) today.I think its scientific name is Citrus aurantifolia. The plant looks very healthy and has some fruits growing already. The fruits are commonly used in many south-east asian dishes like rujak, hot peanut sauces, sambel, soups etc. I guess I will try to repot it as soon as possible as the pot that comes with it is rather small. I am looking forward to more lime fruits!
