Yall know how much I enjoy eating off the land. I have my vegetable garden (Doing real well I may add). I got my bar-b-que squirrel, I was considering buying a lime plant to add to the outdoor collection..Do any of you have a lime plant, and how is it doing? how big does it get? ------------------ Sometimes you gotta do the next best thing!
Does buying limes at a store, but once seeing a lime tree count? ------------------ May I have another Snowball Clutch? Please may I? Ill be a good little mole.... I promise.
My father has a lime tree. It takes 3-5 years to produce any limes. I love limeade! Oh, and it gets about 8 feet tall. ------------------ Whatever you want to do, you have to do something else first. [This message has been edited by mr_oily (edited February 26, 2001).]
My dad has several small potted lime trees and they produce REALLY well. ------------------ "You know what they say about the music business. Here today, gone TODAY! - Chris Rock at the MTV Music Video Awards
My mother in law has a lemon tree in a pot that produces. She lives in Louisiana, which basically the same region we're in. My neighbors have a tangerine tree that produces like mad!! I think they'll do fine, good luck. Limeade's on ROXRAN in a few years... hehe rH ------------------ The Psychedelic Groove House of Rockets Basketball Love!

Thanks, I'll keep my plant in a pot and see how it does. . ------------------ Sometimes you gotta do the next best thing!
I have a lemon and a lime bush/tree. Don't keep them close toghether unless you want Limeade! You can buy them at Lowes/HD for about $8-16 depending on gallon bucket. I live in Round Rock (Austin) and they did well here last year...acutally had fruit production, but knocked it off so the plant would use all it could to grow bigger year instead of producing in the first year. They did well, but had to cover them very well and water during the winter. A little harsher in the hills...I guess. My grandpa used to have a huge lime bush at his house in Belaire. ------------------ In the end there will be no judges...only witnesses to my greatness.
