Making a handsome specimen with its dense conical crown of rounded dark green foliage, this tree looks wonderful when used to line a longer driveway or grand entranceway. In midsummer it produces tiny ivory-yellow flowers, which are sweetly scented and very attractive to bees (and other pollinators) – and these are followed by small nut-like fruits.
Garden care: Avoid very dry conditions and keep out of strong winds. Limes prefer alkaline to neutral soil, but they will tolerate acidic soil. It requires minimal pruning, but do remove any broken, diseased or crossing branches in late autumn or winter when it is completely dormant. When planting incorporate lots of well-rotted garden compost in the planting hole.
