Dwarf Key Lime has it all attractive, evergreen foliage, sweetly scented flowers, and edible fruit. Enjoy this tropical beauty indoors in a sunny location during the winter. Move it outdoors in the summer so bees can provide the necessary pollination. You'll love the way the white spring blooms freshen the air with a fresh, citrus fragrance. The golf-ball-size fruit, which is ready to pick in 1-year to 3-year, is tender and juicy with very few seeds. Hardy in zones 9 to 10.
