Thornless Mexican Lime
Citrus aurantiifolia 'Inermis'Thornless Mexican Lime keeps things practical, with clean, easy-to-handle branches that lack the typical thorns found on citrus. The tree produces small, round green limes that stand out against glossy foliage, giving it both ornamental and functional appeal. Its growth is naturally rounded, forming a manageable canopy that doesn’t become overly dense. Reaching about 8 to 12 feet tall and spreading 6 to 10 feet wide at maturity, it develops a compact, productive presence that works well in containers, patios, and edible plantings.
- Evergreen fruiting tree
- Small green lime fruit
- Thornless branching
- Rounded growth habit
- Excellent for containers, patios, and edible landscapes
Thornless Mexican Lime thrives in full sun and well-drained soil. Hardy in USDA zones 9 through 11, it provides fresh fruit and year-round greenery in Texas landscapes.
