Lime Standard Tree (Citrus × aurantiifolia)

Lime Standard Tree (Citrus × aurantiifolia) is a beautiful tropical citrus plant prized for its glossy evergreen foliage, fragrant white blossoms, and edible green limes. Trained into an elegant standard tree form with a rounded canopy, this ornamental citrus adds tropical beauty, fresh fragrance, and edible appeal to patios, sunrooms, and bright indoor spaces.

The glossy dark green leaves create a lush tropical appearance year-round, while clusters of fragrant white flowers perfume the surrounding space during bloom periods. Under proper growing conditions, the tree may produce small tangy limes that can be harvested for cooking, beverages, and garnishes. Its upright trunk and rounded canopy make it an attractive feature plant for decorative patio containers and sunny indoor rooms.

Lime Standard Trees thrive in warm bright conditions with plenty of sunlight and consistent moisture during active growth. In Alberta, they are commonly grown outdoors during the warm summer season and brought indoors before temperatures become cold. Bright south-facing windows or sunrooms are ideal for overwintering.

Regular feeding and good light help encourage healthy foliage, flowering, and fruit production while maintaining the attractive tree form.
