Origin
The Citrus aurantifolia 'Lime Rossa', also known as the red lime, has its origin in Southeast Asia. This unique citrus plant is part of the Rutaceae family. The plant was introduced to the Mediterranean area and thrives well in a warm climate.
Characteristics
The 'Lime Rossa' is characterized by its striking purple-red fruits and green foliage. The fruits have a round shape and are slightly smaller than the average lime. They produce a pleasant citrus scent and have a high acidity, comparable to that of green limes. The plant has spiky stems with small white blossoms that emerge in the spring.
Care
Caring for the Citrus aurantifolia 'Lime Rossa' requires some attention. The plant needs lots of sunlight and thrives best in well-draining soil. Regular watering is important, but let the soil dry out between watering to prevent root rot. It is recommended to bring the plant indoors or protect it from the cold during the winter months, as they are not hardy.
