Dwarf Lime Tree For Sale from Gurneys

The dwarf key lime tree has glossy evergreen foliage, sweetly scented flowers, and edible tangy fruit in one! This plant gives a tropical look to sunny decks and patios. Growing 4-6 ft. tall, this lime tree is grown in a container or as a houseplant in most areas of the country (Zones 2-8). During the summer months, it can be enjoyed outdoors where local bees will take care of pollination for you. If left indoors, it can be hand-pollinated. In the winter months, it can be brought indoors near a sunny window or under a grow light. Our dwarf lime tree typically produces fruit in 1-3 years.

For those who live in warmer climates (Zones 9-10), you may plant your dwarf key lime tree in the ground or leave your container outside year-round. For more information and recommendations, use use our zone finder to ensure successful gardening.
