Lime tree

This tree has a long history. We've grown it from a pit of a lime that grew in our Mexican garden and we both loved. My non-gardening OH is very fond of this tree and takes it for a "walk" every day from his shop to a sunny spots on the property. LOL. I find it comical (do not let him know) and it makes me smile. It is HIS tree and he is taking a good care of it. I hope it will give him a lime one day. :=)

Fantastic!!!! The first thing my OH said was, he likes the ‘trolley/cart’!!! Men!
I think it’s terrific you’ve grown it from a tiny pip to the size it is now. It looks a healthy, lovely specimen! I do hope he is rewarded with limes one day soon...bless, even one lime would make him smile I’m sure.

Haha, Klahanie, that is amusing. I only move my Citrus to just outside the conservatory, once for their summer hols.

Kate. Men notice completely different things than we women. But that's OK is not it? The little tree does look healthy and I will suggest to put it on our deck when the weather turns warmer.

Siris, how did your marmalade turned out.... from your citrus trees?.

Yes, I have to agree! I think it works out well..we work well ‘together’ - most of us!! Learning from one another, it’s a good thing.
I thought the lime looked quite healthy..but, I don’t know what to look for. You’ll know how it’s doing. I hope it flourishes when you move it.
