Don't Forget To Add These for Your Plants:

Persian Lime is a well known fruit-producing evergreen shrub with sparse thorns and sweet-tart fruits that can be harvested starting late winter.  The fragrant white flowers bloom in winter.  The lemon-sized fruits are a cross between key lime and lemons, with thicker peels that ripen to yellow and are nearly seedless.  Grows best in full sun and sandy to loamy well-drained acidic soils.  Cannot tolerate frost.  Persian Limes are the most common type sold in stores. 

Dwarf Rootstalk selections are sold in GA ONLY.
