I'm so excited !

Silly I know but having planted my little lime tree about 4 years ago this year it actually has some baby limes on it. I just hope they don't drop off, I can't wait to see some fully grown limes on my little tree, even one would make me happy.



and this is my "bottle brush" this morning

Re: I'm so excited !

I hope your baby limes develop into full gown ones, Loretta! I have an indoor lemon tree and the flowers have dropped off leaving, what I hope, looks like baby lemons appearing. Isn't it exciting!

Love the "bottle brush" too ...... beautiful colour!

Thanks all, I'm keeping everything crossed that I get a lime or two and just hoping that they don't drop off or get blown off, it keeps getting quite windy at the present time.

Not limes but Nisperos. This tree is in a neighbour's garden. My little limes are doing okay so far, I'm keeping everything crossed that at least one will mature.
